Days after singer Zubeen Garg’s unfortunate death, a Special Investigation Team (SIT) on Thursday raided his manager Siddharth Sharma’s residence in Guwahati’s Datalpara area. As reported by India Today, a team of officials arrived at the premises in the morning but waited outside the building for nearly two hours before starting the search.
When the SIT team reached Sharma’s apartment for a search, they found that it was locked. The lock was then broken and a search was conducted in the presence of a magistrate.
Reportedly, Zubeen’s manager and his family have been living in this apartment since 2019. However, neighbours informed that they have not been seen since the day the singer died.
Sharma has been out of public view since the sudden death of Zubeen Garg last week.
