Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Wednesday said that a Special Investigation Team, which the Assam government had constituted to probe alleged Pakistani links of Congress leader Gaurav Gogoi, submitted its report on Wednesday.
Sarma had launched a series of attacks on Gogoi earlier this year, alleging Pakistan links. In February, a Special Investigation Team was formed in the state to probe an FIR registered against Pakistani climate police expert Ali Tauqeer Sheikh and “unknown others” on charges of abetment from outside India for an offence in India; acts endangering the sovereignty, unity and integrity of India; criminal conspiracy; imputations, assertions prejudicial to national integration; and under the UAPA Act.
This came after Sarma alleged that Gogoi and his wife Elizabeth, Sheikh’s former colleague, are “accomplices”.
Sarma had declared that he would share “shocking” revelations in connection with the case on September 10 after the submission of the SIT. On Wednesday, after the report was submitted, he said that the findings of the SIT would be made public “once the matter is discussed in the Cabinet.”
“During the course of this exhaustive investigation, the SIT has unearthed startling facts which point towards a larger conspiracy aimed at undermining the sovereignty of our nation. The SIT has also established the involvement of a British national – who is also married to an Indian Member of Parliament – in the larger nefarious activities of Ali Tauqeer Sheikh. Furthermore, the investigation also sheds light on how the Ministry of Interior, Govt of Pakistan, facilitated the visit of an Hon’ble Member of Parliament from Assam in their country,” he alleged.
