Lawyer to challenge Zubeen Garg death case bail orders

#national #brief

Lawyer Ratul Bora announced he will challenge the Gauhati High Court’s decision to grant bail to two accused in the death of singer Zubeen Garg. Bora cited loopholes in the state police charge sheet and expressed dissatisfaction with the government's handling of the case.

Amritprava Mahanta and Sandipon Garg were granted bail, while five other suspects remain in jail. Garg died under mysterious circumstances in Singapore last year. While Singapore police found no evidence of foul play, Assam authorities maintain the death was murder. Bora intends to petition the Supreme Court to prevent further bail releases as the fast-track sessions court proceedings continue.
