Agartala 15 Sep, 2024: In a startling discovery on Sunday morning, an SLR (self-loading rifle) was recovered from the house of Khudiram Deb, a resident near former MLA Krishna Dhan Das’s home in the Airport police station area. The recovery of the firearm has caused a wave of concern and speculation among local residents.
The exact circumstances of how the rifle ended up at Deb’s house remain unclear. According to sources, the rifle was discovered by family members, who immediately informed the police. Officers responded swiftly, retrieving the weapon and taking it to the police station for further examination.
What makes this incident more puzzling is that there have been no reports of any missing firearm. Some locals speculate that the ongoing natural gas (NG) work near the area might be connected to the incident. Rumors suggest that a police officer, possibly intoxicated, may have accidentally abandoned the weapon. However, this theory remains unverified as no official report or missing diary has been filed.
The police have launched an investigation to trace the origin of the SLR and determine how it ended up in a civilian’s house. For now, the community remains on edge, awaiting answers.
