Guwahati, Oct 8 (PTI) Assam Police has suspended two personal security officers (PSOs) of singer Zubeen Garg after detecting financial transactions worth over Rs 1.1 crore in their bank accounts, a senior official said on Wednesday.

PSOs Nandeswar Bora and Prabin Baishya, who had been attached to Garg for a decade after a death threat from the banned ULFA outfit, were suspended following an internal probe, the official said.

"We found financial irregularities in their bank accounts. One PSO's account shows Rs 70 lakh, while Rs 45 lakh was detected in the other's account. This amount of financial transaction is much above their known salary income," CID Special DGP Munna Prasad Gupta told PTI.

Accordingly, both the PSOs have been suspended and departmental proceedings are being initiated
