MYSURU: A day after court extended his judicial custody, a fresh case has been booked against KS Manjunath alias ‘Santro’ Ravi at Devaraja police station limits. According to Devaraja police, ‘Santro’ Ravi has been booked under various sections of the IPC based on a complaint by his wife. In her complaint, his wife has stated that while she was going to Devaraja market, Ravi along with one Prakash had hit her scooter on November 22 and stole the cheque book which was kept in the vehicle.
