The hearing of Karthik Kumar was held on Thursday in the court of ADJ 3 Satyanarayan Shivhare.
Karthik Kumar’s lawyer Janardhan Rai, who came from the civil court, argued that he was not present at the scene of the abduction. The location of his mobile tower was also away from the spot.
On Thursday morning, On Karthik Kumar dismissed the allegations against him. He told the media that the investigating officer had proved his innocence in the kidnapping case. When he took cognizance of this matter during the Corona period, his name also cropped up again. He has full faith in the court.
