A ba’al korei, too, should not bear any animosity towards people in the shul. If he does, the gabbai should not call the person that the ba’al korei dislikes for an aliyah when the tochacha is being read. It is possible that the ba’al korei could intend for the curses to fall upon the oleh, which would be dangerous. The Achronim disagree about whether a person in this situation should refuse the aliyah if he is called. If he is concerned that he may be called, he should walk out of shul before the aliyah is given out. It has become accepted for the ba’al korei to receive the aliyah of the tochacha.
