The Gauhati High Court summoned Mizoram authorities after a police press release revealed sensitive murder investigation details. This happened in the case of a young woman found dead near a football playground in December 2025. The police disclosed forensic findings and victim's personal details in their January 27 press release. This disclosure reportedly caused public outrage, leading to mob violence against the petitioner's family. The Court ordered weekly monitoring and appointed a Claims Commissioner to assess damages for βΉ7,61,130.
