Nur Zafar Ali, a resident of Barni village in Hajo, went missing on March 2, prompting his family and villagers to launch a desperate search.

A wave of shock and anger has gripped Hajo in Assam’s Kamrup district after Nur Zafar Ali, a student who had been missing for 10 days, was found murdered today.

Nur Zafar Ali, a resident of Barni village in Hajo, went missing on March 2, prompting his family and villagers to launch a desperate search.

Despite their efforts, they failed to locate him. Growing suspicious, his family filed a complaint at Hajo Police Station, alleging the involvement of a local resident identified as Saddam Hussain.

Following the complaint, police detained Saddam Hussain for questioning.

During interrogation, he confessed to murdering Nur Zafar Ali and revealed that he had buried Ali’s body near a school in Mukalmua, located in the same district.

Acting on this information, police rushed to the location and recovered Nur Zafar Ali’s body.

As news of the murder spread, outraged villagers set the accused’s house on fire, demanding capital punishment for Saddam Hussain.

The incident has sparked massive outrage in the region, with residents urging Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Assam Police to ensure strict punishment and set a strong action against such crimes.

Expressing grief and anger, a local villager said, “Living in a society, if we can’t provide justice to the victim and his family, there is no use of living in the society. We urge CM Himanta Biswa Sarma and the State Police to initiate strict action against Saddam Hussain.”

Meanwhile, police have urged residents to remain calm and allow the legal system to take its course.

Investigations are ongoing to determine the exact motive behind the murder, as interrogation of the accused continues.

Officials have assured the victim’s family and the public that justice will be served.
