A retired education department employee and his wife were brutally attacked and robbed in their home in Morikalong, near Nagaon town. The victims, identified as Harendra Nath Bora and Dipti Bora, were reportedly assaulted with a sharp weapon by their former caretaker, Prabhat Hazarika, who fled the scene with cash and valuables.
Police sources indicate that Hazarika had been living with the elderly couple for some time and had previously worked as their caretaker. Preliminary reports suggest that he may have carried out the attack with intent to rob them.
Both Harendra Nath Bora and his wife sustained serious injuries during the assault and are currently receiving medical treatment at a local hospital. Their condition is reported to be stable but is being closely monitored.
Local residents expressed shock and outrage over the incident, describing the couple as humble and well-respected members of the community. In response, police have launched a manhunt to locate and apprehend the accused.
Authorities have registered a case under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), and an investigation is ongoing to uncover the full circumstances surrounding this violent robbery.
