Mystery shrouds the Thursday's triple-murder at Uttara as intelligence agencies are not ruling out the killing's link with insurgents of a neighbouring country.
The investigators also found the family members of the dead to be very 'suspicious'. The investigating officer (IO) of the case termed the murders 'mysterious' and suspect the family was involved in illegal activities.
Meanwhile, the identity of one of the three dead was known yesterday. Victim Ajay Singh is the uncle of Sanjay, a student of Milestone School and College, who was also killed on Thursday. The identity of the male domestic help, the third victim, is yet to be known.
Law enforcers found the bodies of three men of Manipuri community at a house in Uttara Thursday night. All the bodies had their throat slit.
Police held Kuleswar Sinha, father of Sanjay, at Uttara Police Station for quizzing after he went there to receive his son's body yesterday evening. Uttara police also picked up three, Ashit Kumar, Jisair and Lipson, for quizzing.
Law enforcers held Kuleswar on May last year after six National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT) insurgents were killed in an encounter with Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) in a tea estate in Kamalganj of Moulavibazar.
He was then held for allegedly providing shelter to the six insurgents. Intelligence agencies now suspect the three murders could have been committed by people connected with those six insurgents.
