Guwahati: The mother of Shyamkanu Mahanta, who was arrested by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the death of legendary singer Zubeen Garg, met her son for the second time at the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) office on Thursday.

Speaking briefly to media persons after the visit, Mahanta’s elderly mother said she was allowed only a short interaction with her son. “I could meet him for a very little time,” she said, her voice heavy with emotion. When asked if Mahanta shared anything with her, she replied, “No, he did not say anything. I blessed him and told him that truth will always prevail and may God bless him.”

Mahanta, a prominent social entrepreneur and cultural organiser, was arrested earlier this month as part of the ongoing SIT investigation into the untimely demise of Zubeen Garg. His family and supporters have maintained that he is innocent and have called for a fair and transparent inquiry. The SIT continues to record statements and gather evidence in connection with the high-profile case.
