Zubeen Garg Case: Accused Shyamkanu Mahanta Seeks Bail, Hearing Set for April 22

Guwahati, April 10:
In a significant development in the ongoing investigation into the death of Zubeen Garg, one of the accused, Shyamkanu Mahanta, has filed a bail application before a fast-track court. The matter is scheduled to be heard on April 22.

According to legal sources, the bail plea was submitted following recent court proceedings in the case, which continues to draw public attention across Assam.

During earlier hearings, the court also took note of related issues involving financial dealings allegedly connected to individuals linked with the case. Certain claims of fund mismanagement and disputes over business interests were brought up, though these aspects remain under judicial consideration.

The case stems from the death of Zubeen Garg in 2025 during an overseas visit, which initially appeared to be an accidental incident but later led to a deeper probe. Investigators subsequently registered a case involving serious charges, including criminal conspiracy, against multiple individuals.

The proceedings are currently being handled by a designated fast-track court, with further legal developments expected in the coming weeks.
