    As per reports, the incident occurred early in the day in Gumrah village, in the Cachar district of Assam. They were detained from the Gumrah marketplace by the Village Defence Organization (VDO).

    Those who were detained were identified as Safiq Ali of Sylhet, Mohammad Ali of Sunamganj, and Mutassir Ali of Habijgaon, all natives of Bangladesh.
