Assam: Police Bust Inter-State Gang in Sribhumi, Five Abducted Women Rescued

Silchar: Sribhumi District Police in Assam have arrested four fugitives who had been evading arrest for months in connection with a series of serious crimes, while successfully rescuing five young women who had been abducted by the gang.

Acting on precise intelligence, special teams tracked the accused across state lines and carried out coordinated raids in Chennai and Bengaluru with the help of local police. All four suspects were apprehended and the victims were safely recovered.

The arrested individuals have been identified as:
- Nur Ahmed Laskar (Hailakandi)
- Shribas Das (Cachar)
- Sajon Ahmed (Sribhumi)
- Joyrul Islam (Sribhumi)

Police sources confirmed that the gang was wanted in multiple cases of abduction and other offences registered across the district. The accused had fled Assam to avoid capture and had been on the run for an extended period.

The rescued women, all in their early twenties, are currently undergoing medical examination and trauma counselling at a government facility. They will be handed over to their families after completion of legal formalities.

Senior officers have described the operation as a significant success against organised crime in the region. Investigation is continuing, and additional charges are likely to be pressed based on the victims’ statements and further evidence.
