From this house, Chinnaiah, with Jayanth, travelled to Delhi with the intention of presenting the case before the Supreme Court," a source close to TOI claimed.
Speaking to reporters outside the SIT office in Belthangady, Jayanth, meanwhile, claimed that Chinnaiah had come to meet him carrying the skull.
"Chinnaiah arrived at the Satellite Bus Stand (Mysore Road) from where I picked him up and brought him to the house. He told me that he had the skull in a packed bag and it needed to be presented for investigation in the mass burial case. Taking the bag, we went out, unpacked the bag at a desolate place, and clicked pictures of the skull. Then, we travelled to Delhi to meet some officials who could help in taking the matter to the apex court. With good intentions, I helped Chinnaiah, and I am no part of any conspiracy. If SIT finds me guilty, I am ready to face the law," Jayanth told the media, as reported by TOI.
