Garima Saikia Garg, wife of late singer Zubeen Garg, on Thursday expressed confidence in the ongoing investigation into the circumstances surrounding her husband's death, asserting her "full faith in the legal system".
She appealed for patience with the legal process handling her husband's case and said that the "investigation would reveal the truth" and those responsible would face justice. Speaking to ANI, Garima said, "The investigation process is ongoing, and they are handling it in their own way. Therefore, we should not comment on it right now. I do not have much knowledge about it, so the law will take its own course. I have full faith that we will receive justice through our legal system, and the investigation will be conducted properly. We will soon learn what really happened that day and who is guilty of what we want to know. If anyone is responsible, they will be punished very soon." She further emphasised that the family is relying on the authorities to ensure a thorough and fair investigation and is confident that the truth will emerge. Today marks the 13th day since the passing of the singer Zubeen Garg, who lost his life in Singapore following a scuba diving accident. His mortal remains were first flown to Delhi and later transported to Guwahati on September 21 by a commercial flight. Meanwhile, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma is personally overseeing the investigation into Zubeen Garg's death, considering it a 'national duty' to bring justice to the iconic singer, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) said. In a press statement, BJP state spokesperson Kalyan Gogoi stated that Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma is personally overseeing the investigation into Zubeen Garg's case in accordance with the public's expectations of justice. "No one in Assam will be above the law. The guilty must not evade appropriate punishment, and until justice is served, neither the BJP government nor the BJP party will rest", the party's statement read. The party also mentioned that the investigative process will be carried out with complete accuracy, integrity, and fairness, while also urging people to maintain trust in the law and proceed with confidence, while staying at a safe distance from any person or force that could interfere with the investigation. The spokesperson expressed gratitude to the people of Assam for the faith and confidence they have shown in the Chief Minister. A day earlier, Shyamkanu Mahanta, organiser of the North East Music Festival in Singapore, and Siddharth Sharma, manager of singer Zubeen Garg, were sent to 14 days' police custody by the Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) of Kamrup on Wednesday in connection with the death of the singer. Meanwhile, Assamese actress Nishita Goswami and Zubeen Garg's co-musician Shekhar Jyoti Goswami, on September 27, appeared before the Crime Investigation Department (CID) of Assam Police in connection with the probe into the death. The CID, Assam, has registered a case (no 18/2025) under Section 61(2)/105/106(1) of BNS, 2023, in connection with the suspicious death. (ANI)
