Highly placed sources said that the interrogation process of the accused in the case who are lodged at the Dibrugarh Central Jail will be started by the CBI team from Saturday.

Initially a suo-motu case was registered by the Dibrugarh Police. Later, four FIRs were filed by several duped investors against Phukan.
