IMPHAL: Security forces arrested five persons, including a militant, from Manipur’s Kangpokpi and Kamjong districts on Saturday. Four of those, nabbed from Bimparao in Kangpokpi, were reportedly working under a cadre of the proscribed Kuki National Front (P).
In Kamjong’s Kultuh village along the India-Myanmar border, forces arrested an active cadre of the outlawed People’s Liberation Army Friday, said a police officer. A pistol and a grenade were among the arms recovered from his possession. Meanwhile, several arms and ammunition were “voluntarily surrendered by the public” in five districts of the northeastern state on Friday, police said.
