A day after a group of Bajrang Dal members allegedly created ruckus at a pub in Mangaluru in coastal Karnataka, the City Police on Tuesday decided to initiate only security proceedings under Sections 107 and 110 of the Code of Criminal Procedure as neither the affected students nor the pub management came forward to file a complaint.
“No complaint has been filed against the persons who created a ruckus. As a precautionary measure, to prevent such incidents from recurring, we are initiating security proceedings, ” Commissioner of Police N. Shashi Kumar said. This implies that those involved will be asked to submit an undertaking of “good conduct”.
Around 8 p.m. on Monday, a group of Bajrang Dal members reached Recycle Pub, off Balmatta Road, and asked the security personnel about the age of the 30-odd students partying inside the pub. The security personnel took the matter to the pub manager who, in turn, enquired with the students about their age. Soon, the students left the place, Mr. Kumar said.
