Karnataka High Court on Thursday ordered interim release of RCB Marketing head Nikhil Sosale and three others arrested in connection with the June 4 stampede that killed 11 people.

Others who got relief from the HC are Sunil Mathew, Kiran Kumar S and Shamant N P Mavinakere of the event organising company DNA Entertainment Networks Pvt Ltd, who were also arrested on June 6. The HC has asked the arrested persons to surrender their passport.


The celebrations for the RCB’s first-ever IPL win turned tragic as at least 11 people were killed and more than 30 injured in the stampede outside Bengaluru’s Chinnaswamy Stadium, where thousands of fans had gathered to catch a glimpse of the team.


The case came up for hearing before Justice S R Krishna Kumar, who had reserved the verdict on interim plea by Sosale after hearing arguments on June 11.
Sosale and other petitioners are presently in judicial custody.

On June 9, the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) produced Sosale and other three arrested individuals before a local magistrate court, seeking nine-day custody. But the magistrate court had deferred the matter awaiting HC decision.
