![[YouTuber Assault case] That vigilantism could be encouraged if bail is granted is not a reason to deny bail: Kerala High Court](https://gumlet.assettype.com/barandbench%2F2020-07%2F4f994bba-9a05-44b0-8de9-eeb7d6399429%2FIMG_20200709_WA0005.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&fit=max)
"There is no doubt that vigilantism has no place in a civilised society", said the Kerala High Court in on Tuesday while allowing the pre-arrest bail applications moved by three women accused of assaulting YouTuber Vijay P Nair in reaction to derogatory comments made in his videos.
All the same, the Justice Ashok Menon reasoned that this cannot be a reason to deny bail to the three women accused. (Bhagyalakshmi K. v. State of Kerala).
