Assam Police have arrested two personal security officers (PSOs) of late singer Zubeen Garg after uncovering financial transactions totalling over Rs 1.1 crore from their accounts.

The arrested PSOs, Nandeswar Bora and Paresh Baishya, had sums far exceeding their known sources of income—Rs 70 lakh in one account and Rs 45 lakh in the other.

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been interrogating them for the past four days. Zubeen’s wife, Garima Saikia Garg, clarified that the money was given to the PSOs for his social welfare work.

Meanwhile, the CJM Court has remanded Nandeswar Bora and Paresh Baishya, the Personal Security Officers (PSOs) of Zubeen Garg, to five-day police custody.
