Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court has refused to quash an FIR registered against a woman advocate accused of collecting money from the mother of a murder accused on the pretext of bribing a High Court judge to secure bail for her son. Justice M. Nagaprasanna passed the order while dismissing a petition filed by Mysuru-based advocate Dayina Banu, who had sought quashing of the FIR registered at Vidhana Soudha Police Station. The case was registered based on a complaint lodged by the Registrar General of the High Court following directions issued by a Division Bench. She was allegedly introduced to advocate Dayina Banu, who is accused of demanding a large sum of money, claiming it was required to influence a High Court judge. Holding that the allegations involve institutional integrity and require a complete investigation, the High Court dismissed the petition and allowed the probe to continue.
