Bengaluru court dismisses private complaint against PM Modi

Bengaluru: A special court here on Tuesday dismissed a private complaint filed against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The complaint by a person named Ziaur Rahman was in respect of Modi's statement during an election speech earlier this year that if the Congress comes to power after the Lok Sabha polls, it would redistribute wealth of people to Muslims.

The order was passed by the 42nd Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court Judge K N Shivakumar.
