Two journalists were beaten up and robbed by four miscreants while covering the news of a fire that broke out at 9th Mile near Jorabat last night.
Trilok Singh, a Pratidin Time correspondent and Bijoy Ghosh, an Assam Talks correspondent from Jorabat were capturing videos of the fire in the 9th Mile market area last night when they were obstructed by four miscreants. The miscreants even thrashed and robbed the correspondents.

Trilok Singh sustained minor injuries and his DSLR camera, a halogen lamp and a gold chain which he was wearing, were snatched away by the miscreants. Ghosh somehow managed to run away. Police and CRPF personnel soon appeared on the scene, but the miscreants managed to flee.

An FIR was lodged and case was registered this morning at Khanapara Police Outpost.
