The duo, after being detained by the Special Task Force (STF) of Assam police, was reportedly kept at Dibrugarh’s Gymkhana Club where they had their breakfast before being brought to the Dibrugarh police station amid tight security.

While refusing to divulge much, Dibrugarh Superintendent of Police Rakesh Reddy told media persons detailed statements would be made only after the accused are thoroughly interrogated.

“The duo was handed over to Dibrugarh police at around 9 am by the STF. We will interrogate them only after which everything will be clear,” SP Reddy said.
