Ashirbad Hazarika, the Executive Magistrate of Dalgaon Revenue Circle in the Darrang district, surrendered himself in to CID investigators late on Thursday night, hours after suspended SP Rajmohan Roy was taken into custody. Later, the due were imprisoned.
In connection with the death case, the CID had served Hazarika with a summons and requested him to appear before the investigating officer on November 9. Nevertheless, he did not show up.
