This, incidentally, is the first case under KCOCA being heard in the state.
Annmalai, while serving as an IPS officer in Karnataka, was the investigation officer in the murder case. He came down to Belagavi on Tuesday and stayed in the city till he recorded his statement on Wednesday.
Senior IPS officers, ADGP Pratap Reddy, and former Bengaluru Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao also attended the court proceedings and recorded their witness statements.
Karnataka Police department has filed a case against Raja and 15 others in connection with Nayak's murder.
