Initially, the police claimed that she died in an accident that occurred around 2 am on National Highway 37 near Sarubhagia village in Kaliabor in Nagaon. 

However, after some time, the incident seemed to have a lot of alleged foul play.

Junmoni Rabha who was said to have died in the accident did not have any visible signs on her body that indicated that she died in an accident that involved a truck crashing into her vehicle.

Many top personalities also pointed out the possibility of a murder angle.

The CBI took over the case from the CID on June 14 after DGP GP Singh visited the CBI office in Delhi to discuss the case.
