A youth breached police security to kiss Shafi Bellare, accused in a 2022 murder case, on the forehead in a court. Despite heavy police presence, the act happened in front of everyone. The incident raises questions regarding security measures as the youth remains at large.

In a dramatic display, an unidentified youth interrupted police procedures on Monday, managing to approach Shafi Bellare, a key suspect in the murder of BJP youth leader Praveen Nettar, inside a courtroom.

The young man, slipping past security, reached Bellare and kissed him on the forehead, stunning onlookers and law enforcement officials alike.
