Akhil said that even the recent person Suruj Gogoi who succumbed to his injuries after being shot by the police was also a fake encounter.
“His family members have told us that Suruj Gogoi was picked up by the Army on allegations of being a ULFA-I linkman and was then handed over to the police. In police custody, he was shot at point-blank range by a sub-inspector named Imran Hussain”, he added.
He further added that the BJP has murdered democracy in Assam and there seems to be no need for the judiciary as Himanta Biswa Sarma is the all in all.
