In a separate action, security forces detained Sanasam Sanatomba Singh, alias Naoton, aged 54, linked to the Revolutionary People’s Front/People’s Liberation Army (RPF/PLA). His arrest occurred at his home in Kadangband Mayai Leikai under Lamsang Police Station in Imphal West district. Authorities recovered significant military equipment during the search, including two INSAS LMG magazines, two camouflage helmets, five bulletproof plates, four bulletproof vests, and a mobile phone.
Additionally, another coordinated effort led to the apprehension of Naoshekpam Sanathoi Meitei, a 19-year-old active cadre of the National Revolutionary Front of Manipur (NRFM), in Khoijuman Mayai Leikai within Bishnupur district.
