Barah said,”Gitashree was employed at a massage parlour called — Maya. That is where Gitashri met Sourabh Goenka. Soon, Gitashri and Sourabh fostered a romantic relationship between them. With the help of his aide Aravinda Roy, Goenka tried to get rid of Anjan Nath through witchcraft and black magic. On the other hand, his other accomplice helped Goenka in procuring the murder weapon, that is, the pistol from Bihar. Two days before the murder, Goenka had planned out the entire thing”
On the day of the murder, Nath had gone to Chhaygaon. Gitashree knew all the movement of Nath and she in turn informed everything to Goenka. The shooters arrived in a Yamaha motorcycle. While Anjan was waiting beside the Ganesh temple at Koinadhora, the assailants arrived and shot at him. After the shooting, the assailants went and disposed of the weapon at the Bharalu River.
The commissioner also said that it was Goenka who shot Nath after parking his bike next to him.
“After committing the murder, Sourabh Goenka went to Aravinda Roy’s place where he hid himself and also switched off his phone. He also kept his Honda City car there. Sourabh Goenka is a manager at a dry fruits store. Also, the relationship between the parents of both Anjan and Gitashri was not good,” he added.
