Gang Targeting Police Officer Fires Shots in Guwahati’s Lokhra

In a shocking incident three days ago, a gang of approximately 15 to 20 individuals targeted a police officer in Guwahati’s Lokhra locality, firing two rounds of bullets. The attack occurred at a deserted alley near an under-construction building in Sagolpara. The targeted officer, Arup Rongpi, survived the brazen attack and subsequently lodged a complaint at Basistha Police Station. Investigations revealed that the gang was hired by Paresh Sharma to carry out the assault. While initial reports suggest a land-related dispute as the motive, whether it was merely intimidation or an attempted murder remains unclear. The incident has sparked concerns among locals about the presence of such hired gangs in Guwahati, prompting questions about the role of law enforcement. Further details regarding the case are awaited as investigations continue.
