Three bodies bearing bullet marks were found in Chirang and two in Kokrajhar district, which bore the brunt of the first wave of violence which claimed 56 lives, police said adding one person was also reported missing in Kokrajhar.
Chirang Superintendent of Police Kumar Sanjiv Krishna said the three - father and his two sons - had left the camp for displaced persons at Kawatika village of Chirang district yesterday and their bodies were found today.
"They left the camp without informing anybody and without any security. Since then they were untraced. Today we found their bodies at Borlangshu village at Chirang district," he said.
"Indefinite curfew has been launched and the army is conducting regular flag march in the district," Assam IGP (Law and Order) L R Bishnoi told PTI here.
He said there were some stray incidents, but the situation was brought under control after the police decided to fix permanent security pickets in the recent-violence hit districts of Kokrajhar, Chirang and Dhubri.
IGP of the Bodoland Territorial Autonomous District Council (BTAD) S N Singh said 112 fixed security pickets in the three worst-affected districts of Kokrajhar, Chirang and Dhubri would be set up and the process had been started. (MORE)
