The massive multi-crore scam where investors were duped of their hard-earned money in the name of online trading investment
The Gauhati High Court has granted bail to Sumi Bora, an accused in an online trading scam investigated by the CBI.
While the court’s decision allows her release in the CBI case, Bora remains in jail as she has yet to secure bail in two other cases filed by the Assam Police.
These cases are registered at the Duliajan and Borborua police stations.
Sumi Bora is currently imprisoned at the Guwahati Central Jail. Her bail in the CBI case does not impact the charges in the ongoing police investigations.
Aactor and influencer Sumi Borah and her photographer husband Tarkik Borah wanted in connection with the multi-crore online trading investment scam in Assam, were arrested on September 12 after they surrendered before the police.
Sumi Borah and Tarkik Borah were on the run since September 2, soon after scam kingpin Bishal Phukan was arrested by the police prompting the police and other security agencies to carry out multiple raids in Meghalaya as well as in Bihar too.
The massive multi-crore scam where investors were duped of their hard-earned money in the name of online trading investment, unfolded following the arrest of mastermind Bishal Phukan on September 2.
Thereafter, Bishal’s links with Sumi and her husband Tarkik Bora were substantiated, and the police decided to lodge a suo moto case and initiate further proceedings.
