The politician injured in yesterday's sensational shoot-out had hired a gunman only recently.
BEML Krishnappa, being treated at Harsha Nursing Home in Nelamangala, got himself a gunman after the murder of JD(S) worker Devendrappa in the highway town earlier this year.
Devendrappa was related to Bettanagere Seena, who is fighting a gang war with his cousin Bettanagere Shankara. Devendrappa was murdered in March this year.
