Guwahati, May 22: The Gauhati High Court on Friday adjourned the hearing on the bail plea filed by Shyamkanu Mahanta in connection with the Zubeen Garg death case and scheduled May 25 as the next date for further proceedings.
During the hearing, senior advocate Pran Bora, appearing for Mahanta, placed arguments before the court seeking bail for his client.
Representing the state government, Advocate General Devajit Lon Saikia requested additional time to submit the government’s response and arguments related to the bail application.
After hearing both sides, the court deferred the matter and fixed Monday for the next hearing, when the government is expected to oppose the plea.
The case is linked to the alleged circumstances surrounding the death of singer Zubeen Garg and remains under legal consideration.
