The Karnataka High Court has stayed the state government's decision to withdraw 52 criminal cases, including the 2022 Ladle Mashak Dargah riot case in Aland, Kalaburagi. A division bench led by Chief Justice Vibhu Bakhru issued the interim stay after a PIL alleged that legal procedures were not followed. The court has issued notices to the state government and the prosecution department, directing them to respond within two weeks. Consequently, the trial for all 52 cases, which involve incidents of violence and public property damage, will continue. https://newsfirstlive.com/state/big-break-in-ladle-mashaq-dargah-riot-cases-high-court-stays-state-governments-decision-to-withdraw-case-12127757 #creator program
