Karnataka HC Eases Sosale’s Bail, Allows Domestic Travel With Police Intimation

The order balances his work-related mobility with safeguards in the Bengaluru stampede investigation.

Overview

  • Nikhil Sosale, RCB’s marketing head, can leave Bengaluru for work after informing the investigating officer before departure and upon return.
  • The High Court kept the passport-surrender condition intact, effectively barring any international travel.
  • Sosale was arrested on June 6 and granted bail six days later in the case tied to the June 4 stampede outside M. Chinnaswamy Stadium that killed eleven people.
  • He sought modification citing frequent work travel across India, and the court accepted his undertaking to share detailed itineraries with investigators.
  • His counsel highlighted that similar travel curbs were previously relaxed for co-accused DNA Entertainment Networks and the Karnataka State Cricket Association.
