Bengaluru police are investigating a complaint that someone misused the phone number of Bangalore South MP, L S Tejasvi Surya, to extort money and diamonds. 

Surya's personal secretary, V Bhanu Prakash, filed the complaint at the South CEN Crime police station. Since Surya remains busy, his phone is mostly with Prakash. He takes calls and notifies the MP.
