Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Saturday (September 27) said lookout notices were issued against North East India Festival organiser Shyamkanu Mahanta and Zubeen Garg's manager Siddharth Sharma in connection with Garg's death case. Mahanta's bank accounts and credit cards have also been frozen and Sarma urged both of them to appear in Guwahati.

Garg had gone to perform in the North East India Festival in Singapore , where he died while swimming in the sea on September 19. Many people in Assam have been demanding a thorough investigation into his death.

Meanwhile, the Assam state government has hastened the probe and is waiting for an autopsy report from Singapore. The report from the second post-mortem at Gauhati Medical College and Hospital is also ready.
