Brahmavar, Feb 28: In connection with the atrocities which reportedly were committed against the Koraga colony of Kotathattu village in the taluk, members of Koraga community, Rajesh, Sudarshan, Ganesh Barkur, Sachin and Gireesh, were granted anticipatory bail by the Kundapur district and sessions court.
The police reportedly had raided the residence of Rajesh from Chittibettu here when the Mehendi programme was in progress at his house. They were accused of brutally beating up the Koraga community members. The police also had registered a criminal case alleging that the Koraga community members had formed an illegal assembly and attacked them, thereby obstructing them from discharging their duties.

Koraga community members Nagaraj, Putran, Nagendra and Putran are yet to get bail. The police against whom Koraga community members had registered a case, have not yet succeeded in getting bail.
Kundapur-based advocates, Bannadi Somanath Hegde and Shyamala Devadiga, had argued in support of the bail for the Koraga community members.
