The statement by BlackEyed Event House read, "We would like to apologise to everyone for this late post on the unfortunate mishap that happened after our show with KK sir. Since then, we have been busy with the formal procedures. We would like to state aforehand that our role in the entire event was that of artist coordination. We have had a very special bond with KK sir over the years and are shocked by his sudden demise. We have seen a lot of questions directed towards our event management company so we are stating are answering below:

1. Were the ACs turned off?

No.the ACs were running and working at their full capacity. Nazrul Mancha has a specific seating capacity of people but few more people are forced into the auditorium. It's very obvious that the auditorium having AC installed for a specific capacity of people cannot work properly when the crowd is exceeding the capacity. The venue was chosen by the college authorities and we had nothing to do with the choice of venue or the management of the venue infrastructure.

2. Was there any forced entry? Why was the crowd not managed?

Yes, there was forced entry into the auditorium. Starting from the outside gate to the auditorium gate there were bouncers and police force along with the college students union who did their best to actively manage the crowd. But the crowd was beyond their expectations and the crowd pelted stones at the volunteers to get entry. The police tried their best to manage the crowd wisely.

3. Was KK Sir forced to perform?

He was not forced to perform. Also there was no communication from KK Sir or his band members that they wanted to stop the performance. KK sir thoroughly gave his best till the end and we, his manager and everyone associated with this show have supported him in all ways possible in our capacity.
