A local court in Mysuru in Karnataka today ordered a warrant against Congress leader Dr HC Mahadevappa's son in a bribery case. The 3rd Additional District & Sessions Court in Mysuru today issued an order after the Karnataka HIgh Court quashed Sunil's petition. Alphonso was caught by the anti-corruption agency sleuths of the Lokayukta and named Sunil Bose as the second accused. The court issued a notice to Sunil Bose asking him to appear before it, but he not only questioned the proceedings against him but also sought an exemption from appearance. Mahadevappa's son Sunil Bose is accused of abetting an official, Alphonso, of the Department of Mines & Geology to collect a bribe of Rs 1 lakh from a mine owner in Mysuru, back in 2010.
