 SHILLONG: A magisterial inquiry will be ordered to ascertain the recent firing incident at Williamnagar jail.

Police are yet to find out as to who fired at the Williamnagar jail on Sunday night.

The guards had retaliated after they heard the gun shots. However, they could not ascertain the identity of the miscreants.

“There is lack of clarity on who fired at the jail and we need to order a magisterial inquiry into the incident to find out the truth”, East Garo Hills Deputy Commissioner Vijay Mantri said.

This is the second incident this year after suspected militants had stormed the Williamnagar jail killing two staff in February.
