Neog resigned from the channel following the controversy. The channel's editor-in-chief Atanu Bhuyan also resigned from the channel later.
The police have so far arrested 12 people for their alleged involvement in the crime and seized the raw video footage captured by the TV channel on the molestation.
Assam chief minister Tarun Gogoi has recieved a lot of flak for being insensitive in issuing a press release with the name and photograph of the victim.
A mob molested and stripped the teenage girl after she came out with her fiends from the restaurant-cum-bar Club Mint on the busy G.S. Road Monday night.
The clip of the girl being molested was also caught on camera and went viral on the youtube .
