GUWAHATI: A homestay in the outskirts of Guwahati was sealed by police after a Gauhati University student, Nimisha Thakuria, died while staying there, officials revealed. Nimisha was found unconscious at the Rudra’s Kitchen homestay in Dharapur-Garal area on Saturday and was rushed to the Garal Primary Health Centre before being transferred to Gauhati Medical College and Hospital. Doctors declared her dead upon arrival.
Police have arrested Ali, a 26-year-old man who was Nimisha’s alleged companion, and are probing the circumstances surrounding her death. According to police, Nimisha and Ali had visited the homestay five times within the past month. A preliminary investigation uncovered shortcomings in the homestay’s process of collecting essential guest identification documents.
The police are still examining the records and the circumstances of Nimisha and Ali’s stay. The homestay's failure to collect mandatory identification documents from both individuals is under scrutiny. While Ali claims that Nimisha took her own life, this assertion has not been confirmed yet. All possible angles of the incident are being investigated.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (West), Balin Deuri, stated that the investigation will determine the veracity of Ali’s account. The body has been sent for a post-mortem examination, and police are awaiting the results.
