Bengaluru, July 12 -- Over a month after a deadly stampede outside Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium during an RCB victory celebration, a judicial inquiry into the incident has concluded. Retired high court judge justice Michael D'Cunha handed the report to chief minister Siddaramaiah at the Vidhana Soudha on Friday.
The government said the document will be discussed at a cabinet meeting on July 17.
According to the commission's preliminary observations, RCB did not seek police approval before announcing the event online. The last-minute nature of the announcement left law enforcement unable to plan adequately for the massive turnout, said an official.P11
