SHILLONG, June 1: The police on Sunday sought a production warrant from the court to pursue two cases involving Himan Gogoi (24), who was arrested in Jorhat on May 29, for allegedly sexually assaulting schoolgirls in Umsohsun.
East Khasi Hills Superintendent of Police, Vivek Syiem informed that the warrant request aims to facilitate Gogoi’s production in court for proceedings relating to both the cases.
