Akhil Gogoi, who was arrested under stringent UAPA by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in connection with anti-CAA protest in December 2019, on Thursday afternoon, walked out of jail. 

The firebrand peasants’ leader, who won the Assam Assembly Election from Sivasagar constituency, walked free, hours after a special NIA court cleared him in a pending case. 

NIA Special Judge Pranjal Das did not frame charges against Gogoi and his three associates – Dhairjya Konwar, Manas Konwar and Bitu Sonowal – in the Chandmari case, in which they were accused of having Maoist links.
