The Assam DGP GP Singh has asserted that the recent explosion in Tinsukia seems to be a deliberate effort to divert law enforcement’s attention from the ongoing probe into the APSC Scam.
On the evening of November 22, a grenade explosion occurred in the vicinity of the Army camp in Kakopathar, Dirak.
The explosion occurred in front of the gate of 19 Grenadiers at Dirak approximately at 7:40 PM.
Hours after the grenade blast took place, Assam DGP claimed that the recent blast is an apparent attempt to distract the police from the ongoing investigation into the APSC Scam.
GP Singh posted in the social media handle X stating that the blast seems to be a strange coincidence with the Assam government taking revitalised action on APSC scam.
It is a strange coincidence that the day Assam Government and @assampolice starts taking revitalised action on APSC Scam, there is a minor blast by miscreants in Tinsukia district of Assam. This looks like an attempt to draw attention of senior leadership of police away from…
