Karnataka High Court today adjourned to August 25 hearing of the petition filed by former Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa praying for quashing a portion of the Lokayukta report on illegal mining which had indicted him.
A division bench comprising of Justices K L Manjunath and ustice H S Kempanna, adjourned the hearing after the counsel for Yeddyurappa Sandeep Patil sought time till Thursday.
The famous advocate Ram Jethmalani will be appearing for Yeddyurappa.
Yeddyurappa has moved the High Court seeking to quash Chapter 22 of the Lokayukta report on the ground that recommendations were beyond the scope of terms of reference set by the state for probe into illegal mining.
The chapter related to financial transactions between a mining company and a trust owned and managed by Yeddyurappa's family members in Shimoga.
