The Karnataka High Court will hear the POCSO case against former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa on September 19. This decision follows the court’s recent adjournment of the hearing and its extension of an interim order that prevents the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) from arresting Yediyurappa. He is currently under investigation for his alleged involvement in a POCSO case.

Yediyurappa, a prominent BJP leader, had petitioned to have the case dismissed. The court’s choice to extend the interim order indicates that it is carefully considering the matter.

The case has attracted significant public attention. The outcome of the High Court’s hearing could have major consequences for Yediyurappa and for Karnataka’s political landscape.
