NAGAON: A horrific quadruple murder in Assam's Nagaon district has taken a new turn with the arrest of Amal Sarkar, nephew of a victim identified as Gunadhar Sarkar.
The gruesome killing on the night of November 22 had snatched away the lives of Gunadhar, his wife Sarojini and youngest daughter Jayasmrita and a local youth identified as Anupam Sutradhar.
Police investigations reveal a complicated pattern of relationships and motives. Initially, it was rumored that Anupam was in a love triangle with a member of the Sarkar family. However, a much bleaker picture of what went on is now coming to the fore.
Amal says that he had heard some abnormal sounds and rushed to that house. He found Sarojini and Gunadhar dead and Anupam assaulting Jayasmrita.
Amal says that he intervened, overpowering and killing Anupam in the scuffle. The police have arrested Amal and are questioning him to validate his account and to garner more information about the incident.
Even though the majority of the questions are yet unanswered, this arrest represents progress in the case. The investigators are trying to uncover the true causes and all the details of this cruel occurrence that has truly shocked the community.
