GUWAHATI: The top accused in the fresh lynching of 2 Assamese males at a remote village in Karbi Anglong district was once arrested on Wednesday.
Alphajoz Timung alias Alpha was once in hiding at Belurghat village, when he was once arrested by police for last Friday's crime. Timung has been accused of instigating the mob with the lie that the sufferers - sound engineer Nilotpal Das (29) and his buddy Abhijit Nath (30), a businessman - were child-lifters and were fleeing with a woman little one. Timung, a history-sheeter, has reportedly told police that the lie he got here up with, was once a "spur-of-the-moment" one.
"Timung told us that he first met the two youths from Guwahati at the Kangthilangso Falls. It was around 6pm and Nilotpal and Abhijit, both nature-lovers, were looking for ornamental fishes when they had an argument with Timung about their presence at the location. Timung then called up his friends and asked them to come to the waterfall," police mentioned.
