It may recall that an extortion case was registered against SI Junmoni Rabha at Lakhimpur Police Station just a day before the accident. It is learnt that Junmoni Rabha busted a fake gold racket in Nagaon and following the case, she and her team arrested a person from Lakhimpur named Azgar Ali, who is allegedly the mastermind of the fake gold racket. Soon after the arrest of Azgar Ali, his mother Amina Khatun lodged an FIR against Junmoni Rabha alleging that Junmoni demanded a huge amount of money to release her son Azgar Ali. After this complaint, Nagaon Police and Lakhimpur Police started a probe against SI Junmoni. But Junmoni Rabha was killed in a road accident in mysterious circumstances.
Jumoni's mother alleged that the demise of Junmoni is a pre-planned murder. She also said that a team of Nagaon Police led by SP Leena Doley raided her house just a few hours before the car accident and seized some amount of money. This allegation now creates more suspense in the story. Netizen also says that the death of Junmoni Rabha is not natural. Earlier, Junomi Rabha was jailed in a fraudulent case. She was allegedly involved in a fraudulent case with her would-be husband Rana Pagag.
