One person from Gaurisagar in Sivasagar district in Assam was detained by the police in connection with a death threat issued against Assam’s Cabinet Minister Atul Bora.
The youth identified as Nip Pratim Baruah, aged 31 years of Bamun Moran Gaon under Gaurisagar Police Station in Sivasagar district has been picked up for a Facebook post threatening the minister.
This comes after Assam Director General of Police (DGP) G P Singh directed the CID to take legal actions over the matter pertaining to the death threat issued against Atul Bora in the comments section of a post on social media.
The CID investigated the matter thoroughly and was able to locate the user behind the social media handle that had posted the comment in which it was claimed that an explosive had been planted in the cabinet minister's quarters.
