In a recent development, the driver of the truck involved in the tragic accident that led to the death of Morikolong sub-inspector Junmoni Rabha on May 16 has been granted bail. The driver voluntarily surrendered to the Crime Investigation Department (CID) of Assam Police during the ongoing investigation and was subsequently arrested.
The incident resulted in the unfortunate demise of sub-inspector Junmoni Rabha, who was traveling in a vehicle that collided head-on with the truck. Sumit Kumar Pal, the driver of the truck, now faces charges under Sections 279/427/304 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
Details regarding the case surrounding the untimely death of Junmoni Rabha were disclosed by the officer-in-charge (OC) of the Jakhalabandha Police Station, who is investigating the incident. A case numbered 84/23 has been registered under sections 279/427/304(A) of the IPC.
The driver has been charged with offenses related to rash driving, negligence, damage, and causing death by negligence.

Additionally, section 427 of the IPC addresses the offense of mischief causing loss or damage of fifty rupees or more. The punishment for this offense can include imprisonment for up to two years, a fine, or both. Offenses under this section are non-cognizable, bailable, and fall under the jurisdiction of any Magistrate.
Lastly, IPC section 304(A) pertains to causing death by negligence. It states that anyone causing the death of another person through a rash or negligent act, without it being considered culpable homicide, can face imprisonment for up to two years, a fine, or both. Offenses under IPC 304(A) are also bailable in nature.
