RCB Victory Parade: After the victory of the Indian Premier League (IPL), the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) has filed a petition in the Karnataka High Court demanding the cancellation of the FIR lodged on the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) during the victory rally of Bangalore (RCB).
This petition KSCA President Raghuram Bhat, Secretary A.K. Shankar and Treasurer E.S. Jairam has filed. The petition has argued that the association had made necessary security arrangements for the program and the guidelines prescribed regarding the crowd control were followed. In such a situation, it is unfair to register an FIR. The hearing on this petition will be held this afternoon the bench of Justice Krishna Kumar of Karnataka High Court.
On June 4, this stampede took place during the celebration of RCB’s victory at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, in which many people were injured. After this incident, the state government had ordered a judicial inquiry and an FIR was lodged against some organizers including KSCA. Now everyone’s eyes are on the court’s decision. This incident has raised questions on the preparations of the administration and the organizers.
Police arrested four people
The police, taking strict action in the case, have arrested four people. According to sources, those arrested include Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) marketing chief Nikhil Sosh and Sunil Matthew, senior officer of event management company DNA Network.
Police say that serious negligence in security and mob management was taken during the accident. Nikhil Sosh was detained when he was leaving for the Kempagowda International Airport. It is being told that the organizers did not follow the necessary guidelines regarding ticket distribution and admission system, which created a stampede-like situation.
