The Assam Police are moving to contest a recent order from the Gauhati High Court that granted bail to two individuals, Sandipan Garg and Amritprava Mahanta. The pair had been implicated in a legal case involving popular Assamese singer Zubeen Garg.

While the High Court found sufficient grounds to grant the accused relief, the state police force has signaled its intent to pursue a legal challenge against this decision. The case has drawn public attention due to the prominence of the individuals involved. As of now, the specific legal arguments the police intend to present in their challenge have not been fully disclosed, nor has the court set a date for the hearing of this appeal. The situation remains a developing legal matter as the state seeks to overturn the lower court's decision to release the suspects from custody during the ongoing investigation.
