Overview
- SIT chief M.P. Gupta said the chargesheet will be placed in court on December 12 for CID case 18/2025, with a separate financial probe under case 19/2025 continuing.
- Investigators compiled roughly 3,000–3,500 pages after recording statements from more than 300 witnesses and finalising documents with the Advocate General.
- The filing will include two post-mortem reports from Singapore and Guwahati, a toxicology report shared by Singapore Police, and viscera analysis from the CFSL.
- Seven people arrested since October remain in judicial custody, including the festival organiser, the manager, two musicians, two PSOs, and Garg’s cousin, a police DSP.
- Officials aim to file before a December 18 deadline to prevent bail opportunities and have requested a fast-track court, even as the investigation continues after the chargesheet.
