The m*rder case of an e-rickshaw driver in Kharibari has been cracked by the police with the arrest of two suspects, Sujay Roy and Bimal Barman, both residents of Baktarbhita in Buraganj. The incident came to light on Tuesday morning when the body of Sujay Sarkar, the victim, was discovered in Subal Jote, Buraganj. Injury marks on his b*dy raised suspicions, prompting his family to allege foul play. Following this, the police registered a m*rder case and launched an investigation.
On Tuesday night, Sarkar’s two friends from Baktarbhita were taken into custody. According to police sources, the trio had met on Monday night when a heated argument erupted. The dispute escalated, and Sarkar was allegedly killed by the two men, who then fled the spot. During interrogation, both accused confessed to the crime. They were produced before the Siliguri Sub-Divisional Court on Wednesday. The investigation is still underway and being closely monitored by the Kharibari Police.
