The Assam police will soon question a journalist and a camera person of the Guwahati-based news channel that had video-graphed the molestation of the girl, reports Hindustan Times.
This was conveyed to the Centre by Assam government which also promised a complete overhaul of Guwahati city police, receiving flak for alleged delay in taking prompt action to stop crime and in arresting culprits.
Sources said the state government has told the home ministry that police was suspecting that TV journalist Gaurav Jyoti Neog might have orchestrated the molestation of the girl by instigating the mob as the prime accused Amar Jyoti Kalita, who is absconding, was reported to be his friend.
Police are likely to ask Neog and the camera person about their presence at the spot and what they did to stop the attack on the girl.
