Bail Plea in Zubeen Garg Case: A Legal Tussle

Shyamkanu Mahanta, accused in the Zubeen Garg death case, has applied for bail at a special fast-track court. Though the Singapore Police found no foul play, Assam's investigation still treats it as a murder case. The hearing is scheduled for April 22, amidst ongoing legal battles.

Zubeen Garg's mysterious death case sees a new development as Shyamkanu Mahanta, one of the accused, filed a bail petition in a special fast-track court. The hearing is due on April 22, following a previous bail application that Mahanta had withdrawn.

The incident, which occurred just before the North East India Festival, involves a high-profile legal tussle. While Singapore Police found no foul play, Maharashtra's investigation continues, treating it as murder.

Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma previously stated in the Assembly that evidence points to 'plain and simple murder.' The legal case, which sees seven accused, including Mahanta, unfolds with opposing narratives from Assam and Singaporean authorities.
