Ajmal alleged against the Assam Police Border Branch was making a false investigation report with border police officer Chandramal Das of Boko Police Station against veteran army officer Md. Sanaullah.
Ajmal further alleged that due to the conspiracy of the Assam Police border branch, thousands of innocent and poor people were not being able to maintain their case register book. He questioned that if Md. Sanaullah was a foreigner then what about his family? Except for Md. Sanaullah and his wife, two daughters and a son, all his elder brothers were also included in the NRC draft. “How is this possible?” said Ajmal.
Md Sanaullah’s family will seek justice by filing a case in Gauhati High Court. Ex-Army officer Md.

During their visits, Md Sanaullah told them that he was now waiting for justice from the high court. According to his cousin brother Sohidul Islam, Sanaullah was suffering from depression due to this incident. He never thought that one day he would be declared a foreigner in his own country.
Earlier, All Assam Minority Students’ Union (AAMSU) president visited Sanaullah’s birthplace Kalahikakh under Chaygaon legislative constituency and alleged that the Assam Police Border branch was branding minority people as foreigners every day.
