Court found substance in the arguments placed by the petitioners.
"Court is not oblivious of the circumstances under which the Police have sprung into action noticing the content of the video clipping.”
Bench further added that the social media has created a panic situation where a social divide is being brought in the minds of the general public on the basis of the communal identification of a group of persons. In Court’s opinion, the matter requires a trial then only the truth of the allegation could be tested.

Thus in view of the above stated reasons, petition is allowed with petitioners being enlarged on bail.[Sri Rihan v. State of Karnataka, Criminal Petition No. 2378 of 2020, decided on 29-05-2020]
