On March 31, the Manipur police launched a significant operation, resulting in the arrest of five active members of the Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP-Noyon) group from various areas of Imphal East and Imphal West districts. These individuals, identified as Khoisnam Sanajaoba Singh, Khoinaijam Robertson Singh, Soubam Rohit Singh, Leishangthem Naobi Singh, and Khaidem Nongpoknganba Meitei, were taken into custody in connection with their alleged involvement in actions related to extortion and intimidation.
According to reports, the police seized several items, including a pistol loaded with live rounds, a pistol holster, mobile phones, and two two-wheelers, during the operation. The detention of these individuals is a significant development in the ongoing efforts to combat violent extremism in the region.
In addition to the arrests, the security personnel continued their frequent search operations and area domination exercises in the fringe and vulnerable areas of hill and valley districts. The police ensured the movement of essential items, with 235 vehicles plying along NH-2 and 169 vehicles along NH-37. Strict security measures were also taken up in all vulnerable locations, with security convoys provided for the added safety of residents.
The police also installed a total of 111 NAKA/Checkpoints across different districts of Manipur, both in the hill and valley regions. Fortunately, no one was detained by the police in connection with any violation reported in the different districts of the state.
The successful operation by the Manipur police demonstrates their commitment to combating violent extremism and maintaining public safety. As the search for continued vigilance and security measures in the state, it is crucial to inform the public of developments in this matter, ensuring that no one is left behind in the fight for a safer Manipur.
