SIT Chief claims leaked GMCH post mortem report of Zubeen Garg 'not genuine'

SIT Chief and Special DGP of CID, Munna Prasad Gupta, briefed the media today, October 15 on the ongoing investigation into the Zubeen Garg death case, while claiming that the viral circulation of a GMCH post-mortem report of Zubeen Garg on social media and messaging platforms is 'not genuine'

Gupta addressing the media clarified, “That report is not genuine. It lacks any doctor’s signature and is therefore not authentic.”

The SIT chief further stated that the police remand of five accused ends today, and all will be produced before the Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) Court as per the scheduled proceedings.

Of the 11 Assamese expatriates from Singapore, nine have already arrived and recorded their statements. Gupta added that if the remaining expatriate arrives today, his statement will also be recorded, bringing the total to 10 recorded statements.

He further informed that Shekharjyoti Goswami and Amritprabha Mahanta are scheduled to be produced before the court on October 17.

Meanwhile, a team of medical experts visited the CID office in Guwahati to conduct health examinations of the five accused, including Shyamkanu Mahanta and Siddharth Sharma. These evaluations are being carried out under strict supervision within CID premises.

Two expatriate Assamese individuals, Sushmita Goswami and Debojit Hazarika, also reached the CID office today for official proceedings. According to sources, all five accused are expected to be produced before the CJM Court around 9 AM, after which they are likely to be sent to judicial custody.

The investigation remains under tight scrutiny as authorities continue to coordinate witness statements, medical examinations, and judicial proceedings.
