A police complaint has reportedly been lodged against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) batter Virat Kohli in connection with the deadly stampede during the franchise’s victory celebrations in Bengaluru. However, no FIR has been registered on his complaint yet.

Meanwhile, two additional cases have also been registered with the Cubbon Park police station regarding the stampede.
