According to police, a crowd of almost a thousand people gathered in front of the KG Halli police station demanding that the relative named Naveen be arrested. Hundreds also gathered outside the MLA’s house and protested. Vehicles parked outside the MLA’s house were torched. According to reports, the protesters did not allow fire engines to enter the street and to douse the fire.
