(MENAFN- IANS) Bengaluru, June 14 (IANS) An FIR was lodged against the son of Union Minister of State for Railways and Jal Shakti, V. Somanna in connection with a complaint lodged by a couple here alleging blackmail and life threats.

The FIR filed against Arun Somanna was registered as per the direction of the 37th Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) in Bengaluru.

The Sanjaynagar Police have filed the FIR under IPC Sections 506, 34, 504, 387, 420, 477A, 323, 327, and 354 D.

The petition was filed by Trupthi, a resident of Sanjaynagar in Bengaluru. She has alleged that the accused committed fraud in an event management company and issued life threats to her and her husband, Madhwaraj.

The FIR states that Trupthi and Madhwaraj ran an event management company for 23 years. Arun Somanna was introduced to Madhwaraj in 2013 at a government function. The company also organised the birthday party of Arun Somanna's daughter in 2017.
