In a separate incident last month, a tenant's wife brandished a sword and threatened the KSRTC officials when they came to issue a notice for collecting the rental dues towards the commercial complex at the Satgalli bus depot in Mysore district of Karnataka. A case has been registered against the woman and her husband at the Udayagiri police station based on a complaint lodged by the officials.
For a shop in the commercial complex of the bus stand, Shafiq Ahmed obtained a licence for 12 years. But, he was not paying dues and the contract has been expired on December 10. Therefore, the authorities concerned issued a notice asking him to pay the outstanding amount of Rs 1.80 crore.
