Bengaluru: In a shocking incident, a video is getting viral on social media platform that has created a controversy in Karnataka where an IPS officer, while in his uniform, can be seen indulging in a passionate kiss with the wife of another married man, who is reportedly a software professional.
An IPS officer has been accused of having an illicit affair with the wife of a techie, who approached the media on Sunday. He also alleged that police did not file a case even after he brought this to their notice. According to him, when confronted, the IPS officer allegedly threatened to kill him in an encounter.
The complainant, Sagar (name changed), a native of Davangere, who works at a software company in Bengaluru, was married to Lavanya (name changed) in 2010 after they fell in love. Upset over not being able to bear kids even after four years, she started staying at her mother’s house. Sagar claimed that he had asked her to start a business by investing Rs. 1.5 crore and installing a graphic designing studio in Davangere.
“The police officer had visited Lavanya’s studio on May 22, 2017 asking her to cover the birthday party of his twin daughters. The officer spent some time in the studio and Lavanya befriended him. After this, they got into a relationship,” he alleged in his complaint.
Sagar, who came to know about this incident, had approached DGP&IGP Neelamani N Raju asking her to take action against the officer but she didn’t file a case. Sources said that Home Minister G Parameshwara has asked for a report from Raju after a video of the IPS officer with Lavanya and another video of the officer in his uniform, were leaked on Sunday.

“As the DGP&IGP did not respond to my complaint, I have approached a lower court to file the case,” Sagar said. When leading English newspaper tried to contact Neelamani Raju, she did not answer the calls. The IPS officer told that the allegations were baseless.
“The video being broadcast on news channels is morphed. Sagar is psychotic and is making false allegations against me. His wife told me that she was being harassed by him after which she had decided to leave him. She had decided to file a case against him too, but I advised her to not to do so as it is a family dispute,” the IPS officer added.
Lavanya also spoke to reporters on Sunday and said that she had filed a divorce petition in the court which led to her husband leaking the videos to the media.
The techie husband has filed a complaint with the police, who have registered a non-cognisable case under Section 497 (adultery) of the IPC. The husband has alledged that the IPS officer has forced his wife to have an affair with him and released a video as proof of it.
However, according to reports, the wife has alleged that she was not living with her husband as she was not happy with him.
