In a significant breakthrough in the double murder case stemming from a family-centric clash in South Mahimari of Goraimari, Kamrup, OC Bhagwan Deka of Goraimari police station has achieved a major success with the arrest of the fifth accused.
Following promises made by OC Bhagwan Deka to protesters on Wednesday, the police managed to apprehend Jeherul Haque (24), the son-in-law of the main accused, Hanif Ali. Haque had been in hiding at Khanka area of Hatigaon in Guwahati before his arrest by the Goraimari police last night.
The double murder, which occurred due to a family dispute, saw Hanif Ali brutally attacking and killing his two nephews, Abul Basar and Ijazul Haque, with daggers and sharp weapons.
The incident sparked public outrage, with angry mobs cordoning off Hanif Ali's residence the day after the murders.
However, with the arrest of Jeherul Haque, the Goraimari police have now apprehended a total of five accused individuals, including Hanif Ali, Inzamul Haque, Bosiron Nessa, and Asmina Khatun, directly involved in the heinous crime.
