In a major development in the ongoing investigation into the sudden demise of Assam’s celebrated singer Zubeen Garg, a two-member Special Investigation Team (SIT) from Assam is set to depart for Singapore today. The move comes as authorities aim to follow key leads linked to the high-profile case. The SIT team will be led by Munna Prasad Gupta, Special DGP (CID) and SIT Chief, along with Investigating Officer Tarun Goel.
The delegation’s primary objective will be to retrace Zubeen Garg’s movements during his visit to Singapore and verify the sequence of events surrounding his final international trip. This phase of the investigation has emerged as a crucial component in understanding the circumstances of the late singer’s death. Reports suggest that ten Assamese expatriates residing in Singapore have already provided vital information to investigators.
Their testimonies have reportedly helped identify important contacts and engagements that may shed light on Zubeen Garg’s activities during his stay abroad. During their visit, the SIT team is expected to coordinate closely with Singapore police authorities, review shared evidence, inspect locations where Zubeen Garg resided or visited, and examine electronic and financial records for potential clues. They will also collect documentary and CCTV evidence and interact with individuals who had direct or indirect contact with the singer.
