Digital Desk: Transgender advocate Swati Bidhan Baruah, who resides in Guwahati, Assam, claims to have filed a rape case against the man who was found hanging inside his home in the Pandu area of Guwahati on May 29, 2023.

As a result, the court sent him to judicial custody.
After Mansur was given bail, Swati Bidhan Baruah contested its legitimacy in court.
