Summary: Bandmate Shekhar Goswami and singer Amritprabha Mahanta arrested as probe into Zubeen Garg’s death deepens.
The investigation into Zubeen Garg’s death took a dramatic turn this week when two more hands were brought in—Shekhar Jyoti Goswami, a musician, and Amritprabha Mahanta, a singer—were arrested by Assam Police. These two were reportedly present at the yacht party in Singapore, where Garg had gone swimming.
Law enforcement sources say the pair were first called in for questioning and later taken into custody, after evidence was found, reportedly linking them to the events of that day. Videos have been mentioned in media reports showing Goswami swimming close to Garg and Mahanta, recording the scene on her phone.
Before this, two major figures were already arrested: Siddharth Sharma, Garg’s manager, and Shyamkanu Mahanta, the organizer of the Singapore festival. Now, with four arrests made, police have added murder charges under Section 103 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (India’s criminal code) to the FIR.
Investigators are also coordinating with Singapore through legal channels, as the death occurred abroad. The Assam government has asked the Centre to invoke the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) to help secure evidence from Singapore.
The allegations are serious: negligence, conspiracy, and questions about what transpired during those hours in the water. As the case captures national attention, many in Assam are walking quiet streets—Durga Puja celebrations, usually festive, are subdued in the singer’s memory.
