Shivamogga, Jul 25: The police team investigating the alleged assault and attempt to kidnap on Vinay Bidre, personal assistant of BJP leader K.S. Eshwarappa, has named N.R. Santosh, an aide of former Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa, as the prime accused in the case registered at the Mahalakshmi Layout police station in May this year.
Meanwhile, investigators are searching for a CD that the suspects mentioned, added police sources.
All the arrested persons — Prashanth, Kishore, Selvam, Aiyappa, Aravind — and Rajendra Urs, a suspect who secured bail recently, claimed they were working on the instructions of Santosh, the sources said.
The police have been searching for Santosh. On July 15 midnight, a team visited Yeddyurappa's house looking for Santosh, but could not find him.
