On receipt of the FIR, police registered Bongaigaon P.S. Case No.218/2026 under the aforementioned sections. 6. The learned counsel appearing for the accused applicants submits that they are not involved in any kind of activities that have been alleged in the FIR, in fact, they went to the place, on instruction of the owner of the local news channel and they were not aware of anything about demand of any money and therefore, prays that the accused applicants should be granted bail.
