Mizoram: Drunk Policeman Shoots Dead Two Of His Co-Workers

AIZAWL: A Mizoram Police constable fatally shot two of his on-duty coworkers in a shocking event.

The event reportedly happened on Sunday night in the Buarchep oil palm camp, which is located near the boundary between Assam and Mizoram.

The accused cop who shot the pair has been identified as Bimal Kanti Chakma.  Indra Kumar Rai and J. Lalrohlua were the two officers who passed away.

According to authorities, the alleged offender, Bimal Kanti Chakma, got into a fight with Lalrohlua and Indra Kumar for unexplained reasons while allegedly intoxicated.

The heated dispute got so out of hand that Chakma pulled out his revolver and started shooting at the pair.

Chakma allegedly fired a lot of shots at the pair. Lalrohlua passed away right away after the shooting. Indra Kumar, who had suffered severe injuries, passed away as he was being transported to a neighbouring hospital.

Bimal Kanti Chakma, a murder suspect, was detained by the police shortly after the incident.

The shooting death of a person who was killed by police while being targeted as a potential robber in Assam's Udalguri district got shrouded in mystery.

Kenaram Boro was the guy who passed away, according to sources. Nevertheless, it has since been revealed by the deceased's wife that her husband, Dimbeswar Basumatary, was the one who was killed by gunfire.

According to Dimbeswar's wife, her husband was the victim of yesterday's shooting. She further informed that, Kenaram Boro had visited their home and taken her husband.

After some time, she learned that he had passed away and that Kenaram's family had laid him to rest. She commanded that the body of her husband be returned to her house.

Rowta police station at Daiphang Khuti stated on Thursday that, a robber had been shot. Boro was recognised as the feared criminal by the cops.

According to the authorities, a police team and the hardened robber got engaged in a fight following which the robber was shot and killed.

Also wounded by bullets in the incident were two policemen. One pistol and live rounds were found by the cops there.

The deceased person's wife's allegations, however, imply that the entire episode has been exaggerated. The victim's family has contacted the police and the administration in the interim to demand justice.
