In a significant development in the investigation into the death of renowned singer Zubeen Garg, two of his personal security officers have been arrested by the Assam Police’s Special Investigation Team (SIT). The arrests are part of a broader probe into the circumstances surrounding Garg’s tragic death during a yacht party in Singapore on September 19, 2025.
The officers, identified as Anil Kumar and Ranjit Singh, were reportedly present at the scene when Garg went swimming in the sea and was later found floating face down in the water. Initial reports suggested that Garg had drowned, but the involvement of his security personnel has raised questions about the events leading up to his death.
The SIT has charged the arrested officers with multiple offenses, including murder, culpable homicide not amounting to murder, criminal conspiracy, and causing death by negligence. These charges indicate that the authorities suspect foul play and are exploring all possible angles in the investigation.
The arrests have sent shockwaves through the Assamese community, as Zubeen Garg was not only a beloved singer but also a cultural icon who had a significant impact on the music industry in Assam and beyond. His untimely death has left fans and the public seeking answers and justice.
The SIT continues to gather evidence and question other individuals who were present at the yacht party. Authorities have stated that they are committed to uncovering the truth and ensuring that those responsible for Garg’s death are held accountable.
As the investigation unfolds, the case remains under close scrutiny, with many awaiting further developments and hoping for justice for the late singer.
