A senior police official revealed, \u201cBorah has been uncooperative since her surrender. She often cried during interrogation or evaded questions. Despite her repeated claims of feeling unwell, medical examinations found her fit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Prior to surrendering, Borah posted a video asserting her preference for jail over police lockup, citing ongoing misinformation and propaganda against her, which had caused significant distress to her family.
