Scam-hit former Karnataka chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa Monday appeared in a trial court along with his two sons, son-in-law and 11 others and moved application for bail in a graft case related to a land scam.

Amid high drama and tight security, a grim-faced Yeddyurappa, sons B.S. Vijayendra and B.S. Raghavendra and son-in-law R. Sohan Kumar were present in the court of Additional City Civil and Sessions Judge N.K. Sudhindra Rao, who also functions as special Lokayukta (ombudsman) court for speedy trial of graft cases.
