A court in Dibrugarh, Assam, on Monday dismissed the bail plea of actress Sumi Borah, her husband Tarkik Borah, and Bishal Phukan, the prime accused in the Rs 2,200 crore online trading scam.

While Phukan and Tarkik Borah were granted bail by the Gauhati High Court last week due to the Central Bureau of Investigation’s (CBI) failure to file charges within 60 days of their arrest, they remain in custody due to several other pending cases.

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma clarified that no accused in the scam would be released as multiple investigations are still ongoing. He further stated that the CBI would challenge the bail order in the Supreme Court, and the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) is also pursuing separate cases related to the fraud.

Phukan allegedly used Sumi Borah’s network in the Assamese film industry to entice investors into the fraudulent scheme, offering extravagant gifts and parties. The scam, uncovered in September, led to Phukan’s arrest in Dibrugarh, followed by the surrender of Sumi Borah and her husband.
