Bengaluru-based journalist and activist Gauri Lankesh was killed after unidentified men shot at her from a close range outside her residence in Rajarajeshwari Nagar, late on 5 September.
Lankesh, the editor of Kannada tabloid Gauri Lankesh Patrike, was convicted in a defamation case in 2016. She was out on bail after being found guilty of defamation in a case filed by BJP MP Prahlad Joshi.
Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah condemned Lankesh’s death and said three police teams have been constituted to probe the killing and instructions have been issued to crack the case at the earliest.
