In his complaint, Manjunatha Jogi said, "My son, who is residing in Mangaluru has instructed the administrative officials of the old age home, where I have joined as inmate on July 10, to keep me under house arrest. He has given my own house in Hiriadka on rent. I want to go to my own house. Kindly vacate the tenant and facilitate me to reside in my own house."

Giving the clarification to the welfare officer, the concerned officials of the old age home said, "We have not put Manjunatha Jogi under any kind of house arrest. We only told him not to go near the highway as a safety precaution. He has gone to the post office today also for his personal work."
