Police Prepare to Issue Proclamation Against Absconding Shooter Raja Singh in Govind Sharma Murder Case
Muzaffarpur: The Muzaffarpur Police have intensified efforts to arrest Raja Singh, the absconding accused in the high-profile Govind Sharma murder case. As the suspect has been evading arrest for a long time, the police are now preparing to initiate proclamation proceedings against him under the law. Investigators have received information suggesting that Raja Singh has fled Bihar and is reportedly hiding in another state. Police sources indicate that they have traced his possible location to Siliguri, prompting a renewed search operation.
Officials said that if Raja Singh does not surrender soon, the police will seek court approval to issue a proclamation notice against him. If he continues to remain absconding even after the notice, legal proceedings for the attachment of his property may also be initiated.
Key Accused in a High-Profile Murder Case
The murder of Govind Sharma is one of the most widely discussed criminal cases in Muzaffarpur. The incident raised serious concerns about law and order in the district and led to an extensive police investigation.
During the course of the investigation, police identified several suspects and arrested some of the accused. However, Raja Singh, believed to be one of the key accused, has remained out of police custody.
Investigators have reportedly gathered technical evidence, CCTV footage, and other material indicating his alleged involvement in the murder.
Resident of Sahebganj Police Station Area
According to police records, Raja Singh is a resident of the Sahebganj police station area in Muzaffarpur district. Since the murder, he has been continuously on the run.
Police have conducted multiple raids at his suspected hideouts, but he has managed to evade arrest each time by frequently changing locations.
Investigators believe he has been shifting from one place to another to avoid detection by law enforcement agencies.
Lead Suggests He May Be Hiding in Siliguri
During the investigation, police received a crucial lead suggesting that Raja Singh may be hiding in Siliguri, West Bengal.
Following this information, Muzaffarpur Police have coordinated with local law enforcement agencies and are monitoring his possible movements.
Authorities are also tracking his activities through technical surveillance, including mobile phone location data, call detail records (CDRs), and other electronic evidence.
Police have not disclosed the exact location to avoid compromising the ongoing operation.
Proclamation Proceedings Underway
Police officials stated that since the accused has remained absconding and has failed to appear before the authorities, they are preparing to obtain permission from the court to issue a proclamation notice.
Once the proclamation is issued, Raja Singh will be legally required to surrender before the court or the police within the prescribed period.
Failure to do so could result in further legal action, including the attachment of his movable and immovable properties in accordance with the law.
Multiple Raids Conducted
Police teams have carried out raids at several locations in Bihar and other states in an effort to arrest the accused.
Investigators are also keeping a close watch on his relatives, acquaintances, and possible associates.
According to sources, police suspect that Raja Singh may be receiving assistance from certain individuals, and this aspect is also being investigated.
Focus on Technical Investigation
Police are placing significant emphasis on technical surveillance to trace the absconding accused.
Investigators are examining mobile phone records, social media activity, banking transactions, and digital communication to identify his exact whereabouts.
Officials believe that electronic evidence could play a key role in locating and arresting him.
Interrogation of Other Accused Continues
Police are continuing to question the accused who have already been arrested in connection with the case.
The objective is to determine who has been in contact with Raja Singh and whether anyone has been providing him with financial or logistical support while he remains on the run.
If additional individuals are found to be involved in helping the absconding accused, legal action will also be taken against them.
Police Appeal to the Public
Muzaffarpur Police have appealed to the public to share any information regarding Raja Singh's whereabouts.
Officials assured that the identity of anyone providing credible information would be kept strictly confidential.
Police also warned that sheltering or assisting an absconding accused is a criminal offense and those found doing so would face legal action.
Strong Message Against Criminals
Police officials said that strict action is being taken against absconding criminals.
They emphasized that legal measures such as proclamation notices and property attachment are intended to ensure that offenders cannot evade the justice system.
In recent years, Bihar Police have successfully used similar legal procedures in several cases to compel absconding accused persons to surrender or face arrest.
Public Reaction
The Govind Sharma murder case continues to attract public attention in Muzaffarpur.
Local residents believe that the arrest of the main accused will help investigators complete the case and strengthen the chances of justice for the victim's family.

Investigation Continues
Police teams remain engaged in continuous search operations based on technical surveillance and intelligence inputs.
Officials have expressed confidence that Raja Singh will be arrested soon and produced before the court. They also reiterated that if he continues to evade arrest, the police will proceed with proclamation and property attachment proceedings as permitted under the law.
