SHILLONG, Feb 1: Meghalaya Police has received the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) report on the road accident that occurred last year, in which a biker was allegedly killed by the convoy of Tourism Minister Paul Lyngdoh, while en route to the Shillong Cherry Blossom Festival with a friend.
Sources in the state government confirmed that the police recently received the FSL report and have submitted their findings to the court.
The victim, Hudderfield Rymbui, a resident of Nongtalang in West Jaintia Hills, was riding with a pillion passenger on November 15 when a police escort vehicle — part of the VIP cavalcade of Tourism Minister Paul Lyngdoh — allegedly struck their motorcycle.
The Meghalaya Human Rights Commission (MHRC) is also investigating the incident. The commission had earlier issued a notice to the Superintendent of Police (SP) of Ri-Bhoi following a complaint lodged by Meghalaya Pradesh Mahila Congress president, Joplin Scott Shylla.
