Guwahati hotel shooting accused gets custody with court safeguards

A Guwahati court has set conditions for the seven-day police custody of Ghanakanta Gogoi, accused of shooting dead five people at Hotel Bilas Inn on Monday, after he raised "encounter" fears. It ordered medical checks every 24 hours, barred custodial torture and required a DSP-rank officer during evidence recovery. Police say the shooting stemmed from a hotel lease dispute.
