In a letter to the police, the complainant Vijay Tata said, "Speaking with Kumaraswamy, Ramesh Gowda....handed me the phone to talk. During this conversation, HD Kumaraswamy mentioned the Channapatna by-election. He said, "This time, you have to pay Rs 50 crore for election expenses, which is necessary for us to win in the Channapatna by-election." Disturbed by Kumaraswamy's words, I immediately replied, Sir, I don't have that much money; I need to calculate my real estate projects..."
"HD Kumaraswamy, the state president of JDS, became angry with my response and threatened, "If you don't prepare Rs 50 crores, I don't know what I will do. If you run a real estate business in Bangalore, it will be difficult for you to live here." While all this was happening, Ramesh Gowda, who was sitting in front of me, insisted that I prepare Rs 50 crore. He added that he was building a temple and a school and requested Rs 5 crore for that. He warned, If you don't give this money, you will face problems," Vijay Tata added in the letter.
