Satadru Dutta, the main organiser of Lionel Messi's 'G.O.A.T. Tour of India', has been denied bail and remanded to 14-day police custody following chaotic scenes at Kolkata's Salt Lake Stadium. The event descended into disorder when fans, who paid up to Rs 14,000 per ticket, were unable to see Messi due to crowds of politicians and VIPs surrounding the football star.
