evidence: According to the CBI's allegations, Shivakumar accumulated assets that were disproportionate to his known income sources between 2013 and 2018, during which he served as a minister in the previous Congress-led government. The CBI filed the FIR on September 3, 2020, and Shivakumar challenged it in the high court in 2021. Shivakumar had challenged the FIR registered by CBI on October 3, 2020, claiming that multiple agencies like income tax department, ED and CBI were investigating the same set of facts with mala fide intentions. Appearing for CBI, special public prosecutor P Prasanna Kumar had claimed that during the check period, between April 1, 2013, and April 30, 2018, Shivakumar and his family members were found in possession of around Rs 74.8 crore in disproportionate assets.
