Siddaramaiah had earlier said a first information report, which marks the start of a police investigation, had been “registered against them”.

The deaths have sparked widespread anger, and top police officers including the city’s police commissioner have been suspended.

Local media reported that the accusations include culpable homicide, not amounting to murder, among others.

There was no immediate comment from RCB.

‘Made to pay’

Siddaramaiah, who only uses one name, also pointed the finger at some senior police.

“These officers appear to be irresponsible and negligent and it has been decided to suspend them,” he said.

The dead were aged between 14 and 29, and were among a sea of people who had poured onto the streets to catch a glimpse of their heroes.
