Sumi Borah and Tarkik Borah are currently in police custody and are expected to be produced before a court soon in Dibrugarh.
Earlier on September 11, Sumi Borah has publicly announced her decision to surrender. Borah, along with her husband Tarkik Borah, has been on the run following accusations of involvement in a financial fraud scheme that has rattled investors and shaken confidence in regional trading markets.
However, Borah took to social media on Wednesday to strongly deny the charges levelled against her, setting off a new wave of speculation and public interest in the case.
The authorities have urged the public to come forward with any information that could assist in the investigation.
