SIT Team Led by APS Moramee Das Leaves for Mumbai in Connection with Zubeen Garg Death Probe

A Special Investigation Team (SIT) led by APS Moramee Das has left for Mumbai as part of the ongoing investigation into the mysterious death of renowned singer Zubeen Garg.

According to official sources, the SIT team will record statements from some of Zubeen Garg’s close associates in Mumbai. The team will also meet the doctor who treated the late singer during his earlier stay in the city. It is to be noted that Zubeen Garg also owns a residence in Mumbai.

In 2020, just before the COVID-19 lockdown, Zubeen Garg was reportedly admitted to a Mumbai hospital following a sudden illness. The SIT will now gather detailed information about his health condition at that time and the nature of his treatment.

Meanwhile, the investigation continues at the CID headquarters in Guwahati. Assam Journalist and YouTuber Chakrapani Parashar appeared before the CID for the second time today. The SIT has sought several video clips of interviews he conducted with the late singer over the years.

During one such interview — particularly around the release of Zubeen’s film Sikaar in Dibrugarh — the singer himself mentioned certain health-related issues. The SIT has asked Parashar to provide written details regarding those interviews.

So far, the SIT has interrogated more than 100 individuals connected to the case and is now expediting the investigation before filing the final charge sheet.

Only after the charge sheet is submitted will the circumstances surrounding the mysterious death of Zubeen Garg become clearer.

Meanwhile, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday had reiterated his assertion that the death of iconic Assamese singer Zubeen Garg was a premeditated murder, dismissing earlier notions of it being a tragic accident.
