A laptop, two mobile phones and many sensitive documents were seized by the police while arresting him. He was produced in the local court and sent into a 5 days police custody by the court.

On the other hand, police in Tezpur also arrested one woman namely Jyotika Kalita for her alleged huge financial transaction with a Pakistani man. Arrested Jyotika was working in Dubai in a money exchange company for the last 5 years. She met a Pakistani man there and supposedly got married with him. The Pakistani man came to Tezpur and stayed in Jyotika’s home for several days. The family has constructed a new house in the city after the Pakistani man’s visit to Tezpur.
In November, Rs. 30,00000 was credited from an unknown source to one of the Jyotika’s neighbour’s bank accounts. The person informed the police about the unknown transaction. Police started an investigation of the matter. They found that a huge amount of money was being transferred to Jyotika and her family members’ accounts from unknown sources in Dubai on a regular basis.
