Karnataka Police Mull Bail Cancellation of Hanagal Rape Accused After Celebration Rally Video Goes Viral

  • Karnataka police are planning to request the cancellation of bail for seven individuals linked to a gang rape case from 2024 in Haveri district, following a widely shared video of a celebratory rally held on May 20, 2025.
  • The bail was granted after 17 months of judicial custody, but police acted following widespread backlash triggered by a public victory procession with slogans and traffic disruption.
  • The accused were involved in an incident where a 26-year-old woman was gang raped after being dragged from a hotel room where she was with a male companion.
  • Police have re-arrested five individuals involved, registered cases related to unlawful assembly and rash driving, and indicated plans to move the court to revoke the bail granted in connection with the Hanagal gang rape investigation, according to SP Anshu Kumar.
  • The event has spurred public debate on attitudes toward sexual violence and legal responsibility, while the investigation and efforts to apprehend absconding suspects continue.
