Diptota Dey, Guwahati: Famous Assamese singer Zubeen Garg’s sudden death at 52 in Singapore last year is still a hot puzzle with fresh twists from Assam’s Special Investigation Team (SIT). They think someone might have pushed him to drink way too much alcohol on purpose, leading to his drowning. But Singapore police say it was an accident – he was super drunk, skipped a life jacket and sank. This clash between probes has fans, family and politicians buzzing. As of January 17, 2026, the case mixes grief, suspicion and calls for justice. This full report on Zubeen Garg death case digs into latest SIT claims, Singapore court hearings and social media storm, showing why this icon’s end feels fishy to many.

Why force-feed Zubeen Garg extreme alcohol pre-swim.? Murder FIR vs 7 inc manager Siddharth Sharma (Rs 1.1Cr siphon) organizer Shyamkanu Mahanta. Singapore Jan 14 coroner: accidental drown, no jacket, yacht Crazy Monkey shots party.

Details & Context

Drowning Day: Sep 18 2025 yacht party Lazarus Island (North East India Festival eve). First swim: jacket removed fatigue. Second: small jacket refused, swam alone. Found face-down; captain swam rescue.

Toxicology: Blood alcohol 333mg/100ml (legal 80mg Singapore). Hypertension/epilepsy meds; no other drugs. Captain noted pre-board drinking.

Assam Probe: SIT/CID 2500pg chargesheet +12K docs. 7 arrested: Sharma, Mahanta, Shekhar Jyoti Goswami, Amritprava Mahanta, Sandipan Garg, PSOs Nandeswar Bora/Paresh Baishya. 4 murder charged.

Fan Fury: 60+ FIRs; Mushalpur riot vs convoy: cars burned, lathi/teargas, 10+ arrested NSA on 2. Baksa jail isolated.

Zubeen Garg, the beloved voice of Assam with hits like “Ya Ali” and “Bistirno Dupare,” died on September 19, 2025, during a yacht party in Singapore. He was there for the North East India Festival, set to perform the next day. Reports say he jumped into the sea near Lazarus Island without a life jacket, even after being offered one twice. He swam toward the island but went limp and drowned.

Singapore police wrapped their probe in January 2026, telling court he was “severely intoxicated” – blood alcohol four times the legal limit for driving. They found meds for high blood pressure and epilepsy but no other drugs. No foul play, they ruled – just a tragic mishap. The coroner’s inquiry started January 14, 2026, with family statements pushing for more answers.

But back in Assam, the SIT – formed after over 60 FIRs flooded in – smells something off. In their 2,500-page chargesheet from December 2025, they charged four with murder: festival organizer Shyamkanu Mahanta, Zubeen’s secretary Siddhartha Sharma, bandmates Shekharjyoti Goswami and Amritprava Mahanta. Zubeen’s cousin, suspended cop Sandipan Garg, faces culpable homicide. SIT says excessive booze was forced on him, maybe to hide a plot.

Why the push.? SIT hints at “ulterior motives” – Zubeen was outspoken against BJP and some see politics in the probe. Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sharma boasts his cops cracked what Singapore couldn’t. But opposition like Congress’s Gaurav Gogoi slams inconsistencies, demanding central probe since it was an India-backed event.

X is Exploding: A video from @Amockx2022 on Jan 16 got 7K views, questioning if it’s a cover-up. Family’s FB post from wife Garima Saikia Garg begs for truth, backing both probes. Uncle Manoj Kumar Borthakur submitted questions to Singapore court on yacht planning and delays in help.

Fresh from Jan 16: Minister Bimal Borah says SIT chargesheet stands, court will decide. Congress hits back, saying chargesheet smears Zubeen’s name.
