The kin of three persons who died in a firing incident on 3 November 2002 in front of Langkashi Police out post of Tinsukia district, Assam have received interim relief of Rs. 1.00 lakh each from the State Government on the recommendations of the Commission. The Commission was also informed that departmental action has been taken against the Sub Inspector.
The Commission had looked into the matter after receiving a complaint and found that the magisterial inquiry report had pointed that the entire incident took place because of lack of command and control and an irresponsible behaviour of the Sub Inspector, who was In-charge of Langkashi Police Station, to tackle a simple law and order situation.
