Two arrested in Hatigaon firing incident

According to police sources, the firing at Hatigaon in Guwahati on the intervening nights of December 31, 2023, and January 2024 came to the surprising conclusion that neither the miscreants’ Scorpio nor the ‘pistol’ they used in the firing had a licence.

When the gunshots occurred on Monday, Hatigaon Police found the Scorpio and took two of its occupants into custody. The weapon used in the shooting has not yet been found by the police. In connection with that, the police detained Kabir Ali of Housefed in Beltola and Nurul Hussain of Sundarban, Hatigaon. The event happened after a dumper and a Scorpio had an accident in Hatigaon. The on-duty police officers raced over and made an intervention. With a pistol in hand, the Scorpio’s occupants began to flee and left the area. The case 1/2024 is being investigated under section 279/353/307/511/427 of the IPC.
