Mandya: The Mandya Police filed an FIR against four reporters for allegedly assaulting and abusing Krishik Gowda, son of MLC K T Srikante Gowda.

Reportedly, Krishik Gowda had filed a complaint with the police against four reporters belonging to TV channels- K N Nagegowda, Sunil, H S Mahesh and Madan.

In his complaint, Krishik Gowda alleged that the four abused his father and assaulted him at the Ambedkar Bhavan on Saturday when COVID-19 tests were being conducted on journalists.

It can be recalled that Janata Dal (Secular) MLC K T Srikante Gowda and his son were booked on charges of assaulting healthcare workers who were conducting coronavirus tests of the district’s journalists.

They had reportedly objected to the testing of the journalists at the Ambedkar Bhavan as it was close to their residence. They feared that the area would be infected should any journalist test positive.

After filing the complaint, Krishik Gowda reasoned that they delayed in lodging the complaint as they were upset due to the media reports.
