Bengaluru Stampede: HC Restrains Police From Taking Coercive Action Against KSCA Members

  • On June 6, KSCA president Raghu Ram Bhat, along with secretary A Shankar and treasurer ES Jayaram, approached the Karnataka High Court seeking to annul the FIR related to the June 4 stampede outside Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
  • The FIR arose after the stampede during RCB's IPL victory celebration, where a large crowd caused 11 deaths and over 50 injuries, prompting police action and arrests.
  • On June 5, an FIR was filed by the Cubbon Park Police against RCB, DNA Entertainment Private Limited, and KSCA, and by the morning of June 6, authorities had detained four representatives from RCB and DNA Entertainment.
  • Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah directed immediate arrests, citing prima facie 'irresponsibility' in handling the event, and suspended senior police officials for the incident.
  • The writ petition seeks to cancel the FIR to prevent arrests of KSCA members amid ongoing investigations into the fatal stampede at the IPL celebrations.
