In a key development in the Zubeen Garg death case, the court has remanded two accused—Shekhar Jyoti Goswami, a band member, and Amritprabha Mahanta, a singer—to 14 days’ judicial custody. Their arrest follows ongoing investigations by the Assam CID into the mysterious circumstances surrounding Garg’s death. Tensions flared outside Baksa District Jail, where supporters clashed with police, leading to property damage and injuries. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has urged the public to maintain peace and avoid politicising the case. Meanwhile, a judicial inquiry has been ordered to thoroughly examine the events leading to Garg’s death. (PC: PTI)
