Moinul Haque and his companions carried out an extremely violent attack, severing the hand of a teenager named Rehan. During the fight, Abdul Bari, Majnu Ali and Ayub Ali sustained severe injuries. Since each injured person's condition was critical, they were transferred from Dhubri Medical College Hospital to Gauhati Medical College Hospital.

So far, Golakganj police have one Moinul Haque in custody and others involved in the crime are absconding from the residence after committing the violent act. 

Locals have a poor opinion of Moinul and his companions and accuse them of being thieves as well as engaging in other illicit activities.
