City police have reached the house of Kannada tabloid journalist Ravi Belagere to arrest him on the allegations that he had given ‘supari’ to kill his former colleague Sunil Heggaravanahalli.
Sources said sleuths from Central Crime Branch got leads on the case while interrogating Tahir Hussain, an illegal gun runner whom they arrested recently from Bengaluru. Sources said he gave leads that Shashidhar, a ‘supari’ killer from Vijayapura district, a hotbed of illegal gun running and ‘supari’ killers, had got a hit job from a journalist from Bengaluru. Further clues pointed fingers at Ravi Belagere, a senior official said.
