NEW DELHI: Madras High Court Justice N Senthilvkumar on Friday dismissed the anticipatory bail filed by Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam district secretary N Sathish Kumar seeking bail in the Karur stampede case.

The judge raised questions on why the party failed to control the mob, highlighting the cadre’s unruly behaviour, including the rampage and damage caused to the public properties during the party chief Vijay’s roadshow.

Additionally, Government Advocate S Santhosh also submitted nine First Information Reports (FIR) registered against the party members, including the district secretary, in connection with the destruction of public properties, opposing the granting of the anticipatory bail.

The stampede occurred on September 27 during a public rally led by Tamizhaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK)
