New Delhi/Assam: More than two year passed away after the deadly clashes in Assam, in which more than 100 people lost their lives and several thousands were rendered homeless, CBI has filed a charge sheet against a former Assam police constable, Mohibur Islam alias Ratul, for allegedly inciting the riots.
The agency has claimed that Mohibur, who is absconding till date, had called for a bandh on July 20, 2012 during which four people of Bodo community were apprehended and lynched, allegedly on his direction. CBI has also recommended major penalty against four senior police officers, including an SP, in the case.
CBI, which is probing the riot cases since August 2012 in Bodoland Territorial Area District (BTAD), had recently taken state government's sanction to prosecute Mohibur Islam, after which charge sheet has been filed in the court of Special Judicial Magistrate, Bongaigaon (Assam), under various sections of Indian Penal Code and Arms Act.
The probe has revealed that Mohibur was carrying illegal firearms with him on July 19 and he accidentally shot a bullet in his leg. However, by suppressing the true facts, he allegedly got an FIR registered through his brother at Kokrajhar (Assam) on July 20, 2012 against one Bodo youth, accusing him of firing at him.
Also CBI officer said,"On July 20 evening, Mohibur's supporters apprehended four Bodo youths. Mohibur, who was undergoing treatment, gave specific instructions to his supporters in the Joypur area on Kokrajhar district to kill them. This acted as a trigger for ethnic violence in the district which resulted in deaths of over 100 people and displaced thousands.”
