On October 23, a group of armed men forcibly abducted Basumatary from the tea estate’s camp at midnight. The involvement of the banned militant group United Liberation Front of Asom-Independent (ULFA-I) was strongly suspected in this abduction, given its previous activities in the region.

Basumatary is currently under the custody of the Lekhapani Police.
