The physiotherapist from 5 Air Force Base Hospital at Rowria near here was carried away by the river current while he, along with seven of his colleagues, was bathing in the river at Kokialamukh last evening, a police officer said.
A missing FIR was filed at the Jorhat Police Station last night after his colleagues failed to trace him following which State Disaster Management Force personnel rushed to the spot.

He had married an Assamese girl from Golaghat district last year.
