Sivsagar/UNI: A dreaded criminal, Bubu Knowar alias Bindo Gogoi, involved in at least 40 killings in Upper Assam and part of an inter-state car lifting was shot dead in an encounter with the police in Sivasagar district.

According to police, he was involved in about 40 killings which included businessmen, politicians and school teachers.

Earlier, Gogoi was arrested by Assam police in 2015 but he got freed due to lack of evidence.

Konwar's killing has been considered a big success for Assam police on the backdrop of the renewed drive against drugs and other crimes in the state.
