Another major leader’s name has surfaced with regard to an accusation of having a role in sharing the videos. 

This accusation was made by an individual named Naveen Gowda. “On 20th April, I found a pendrive on a road. I handed it over to A.Manju, the Member of Legislative Assembly from Arkalgud on April 21st. The ‘Mahanayaka’ mentioned by Kumaraswamy might be the legislator from Arkalgud,” he stated in a post on the social media platform Facebook. A.Manju is a member of the Janata Dal Secular (JD(S)).
