Zubeen Garg's fake post-mortem report goes viral; SIT issues warning
A fake post-mortem report about late Assamese singer Zubeen Garg started making rounds on WhatsApp and X (formerly Twitter) on October 14, 2025.
Police quickly called it out as fake since it didn't have a doctor's signature, and now Assam's Special Investigation Team (SIT) is digging into who made and spread it.
Five suspects shifted to Baksa District Jail
The SIT has warned people not to share false reports, stating, "Spreading fake news is a punishable offense. Stern action will be taken against those responsible for circulating such fabricated material."
Officials also stressed that real autopsy results are confidential for now, to keep the investigation fair.
Meanwhile, five main suspects in Garg's death case were shifted to Baksa District Jail on October 15 after finishing their police custody, as the new high-security jail is meant to address safety concerns.
