Bajali: The death of journalist Dipu Choudhury, a native of Assam’s Bajali district and an employee of a satellite television channel in Guwahati, has raised questions, with his family suspecting foul play and seeking a thorough investigation.
According to Dipu’s family, he had been in a relationship with a woman for around six years. They alleged that her behaviour and attitude towards him changed after she moved to Guwahati and that she wanted to continue her life without him.
The family further alleged that differences gradually developed between the two, leading to frequent disagreements. They claimed that Dipu had earlier told them that he had seen the woman communicating with another youth after allegedly noticing private messages on her mobile phone.
The family believes the alleged developments may have contributed to growing tension in the relationship. Following Dipu’s death, they have questioned whether the relationship issues had any connection with the incident.
They have urged the authorities to investigate all possible angles and establish the circumstances surrounding his death.
Dipu’s family has lodged an FIR at Hatigaon Police Station in Guwahati, seeking an investigation into the circumstances of his death.
However, the allegations made by the family have not been independently verified, and no direct link between the relationship dispute and Dipu’s death has been established so far.
The exact cause and circumstances of his death remain under investigation. The post-mortem examination and police inquiry are expected to establish the cause of death and determine whether any foul play was involved.
