Congress MLA from Rajarajeshwari Nagar Munirathna on Friday filed a defamation suit of Rs 10 crore against his own party corporator from HMT ward Asha Suresh and her husband Suresh for their defamatory comments, acts and indulgences against him.
The suit has been filed in the City Civil Court 12 of Bengaluru which was admitted. The court reportedly granted an order of interim injunction against Asha Suresh and her husband from committing any acts of defamation.
Munirathna said that he was peeved with the statement of gomukha vyaghra (tiger in the garb of a cow) on the floor of the BBMP Council.
