Days after the spine chilling Guwahati double murder case that shocked everyone, new and interesting information are coming to the fore.
It has been revealed that Bandana Kalita, the prime accused in the murder case allegedly paid Rs 2 lakhs to one of the co-accused Arup Deka to help her commit the gruesome crime. Arup took the money to get married. Arup has confessed to the police.
Bandana, with the help of Dhanti and Arup had killed and chopped her husband and mother-in-law, stored the body parts in the fridge for three days before dumping the body parts in Dawki in the neighbouring state of Meghalaya.
The double murder was committed seven months ago in Noonmati area of Guwahati.

The murder case came to light when Bandana filed a missing person’s report and Amarjyoti and his mother’s relatives and neighbours also got suspicious about the whereabouts of the mother and son.
A few months after the missing person’s report, police were unable to find out any information about Amarjyoti and his mother, Bandana Kalita filed another complaint accusing Amarjyoti’s uncle of collecting all the money they received from their tenants from the 5 buildings located across the city.
Following the complaint, the police started an investigation. During the inquiry, they found a clue regarding the missing Amarjyoti and his mother. Based on this finding, the police detained Bandana on February 17 and during questioning, Bandana admitted to the crime. Police later arrested Bandana.
