The Karnataka High Court has granted bail to two men arrested for assaulting a lodge owner who named his establishment 'CSK Comforts'. The accused, Swamy and Suprith, mistook the name as a reference to the Chennai Super Kings IPL team and attacked the owner after a match on June 1, 2026. The court noted the accused had no criminal record and the victim suffered only simple injuries. The men had been in custody since the day of the incident and were booked under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Arms Act. Their earlier bail petition before a sessions court had been rejected. The High Court imposed conditions including a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh with one surety and ordered regular appearances before the trial court.
