Sibsagar MLA Akhil Gogoi has voiced alarm regarding a fake Facebook account operating under his name, featuring a profile picture of Bollywood actor Salman Khan. Gogoi urges authorities to swiftly address this concerning issue.
Taking to Twitter to address the matter, Gogoi states, “I would like to inform you that a nefarious person is running a fake account in my name on Facebook. It would be highly appreciable if the police could identify the culprit and take necessary actions against the miscreant within the precincts of the law.”
Expressing worry over the misuse of his identity, Gogoi calls upon the Director General of Police (DGP) of Assam Police, G P Singh, to promptly investigate the situation and implement suitable measures.
