Guwahati, June 26: The Gauhati High Court on Friday once again rejected the bail application of Siddharth Sharma, one of the key accused in the Zubeen Garg death case, dealing another major setback to his bid for release while the trial is underway.
Justice Mitali Thakuria dismissed Sharma’s bail plea after examining the case records and evidence placed before the court. This is the second time that the Gauhati High Court has rejected his bail application, and he will continue to remain in judicial custody.
Sharma was arrested on October 1, 2025, in connection with the alleged murder of Assamese music icon Zubeen Garg, who died in Singapore on September 19, 2025.
The Fast Track Court had earlier framed charges against seven accused, and the trial is currently underway with witness testimonies being recorded.
Earlier, the Supreme Court had issued notice to the Assam government on the bail plea of co-accused Shyamkanu Mahanta, seeking its response in the matter.
