Student leader behind brutal attack at Chenik Resport


Tura, July 30: A student union leader from Ampati stands accused as prime suspect in the brutal attack on a Tura resident at Chenik resort in Rongram on Sunday last.

The victim, Karan Damai, a 34-year-old resident of Tura Bazar, had gone to the resort with three other friends to spend the Sunday evening when the attack happened.

The victim was dancing with his friends when the accused joined them on the dance floor and suddenly lashed out at Damai punching him in the eye. Not done, the accused attacked him as the victim lay injured on the floor. He sustained serious injuries and required 32 stitches near his eye.

Police sources say that the accused has been identified as GSU Ampati president Megadeth marak who initially tried to mislead police by filing a police FIR in Rongram police station claiming to be the victim.

Later, when police visited the resort to obtain evidence, the owner and former MLA Ismail Marak displayed cctv footage that shows Megadeth to be the attacker and Damai as the victim who was attacked without any provocation.


An FIR has been filed by Damai, and the police have launched an investigation into the incident to determine the circumstances surrounding the assault.
