SHILLONG: The State Police on Sunday claimed to have identified those involved in spreading rumours to create unnecessary tension in the city in the past few days.

“We have identified an NGO which we believe is responsible for spreading those rumours. At the moment, we are keeping a close watch on the activities of the members of this NGO,” a senior police official said on Sunday.

Refusing to divulge the name of the NGO, the police official said the name of the NGO would be revealed once the investigation is complete.

The official, further, claimed that members of this NGO were doing this to make their presence felt in the city.

“We suspect that once they establish themselves they would start carrying out various illegal activities at a later stage,” he said, while making it clear that police would come own heavily on the members of the NGO.

It may be recalled in the past few days, there were rumours about law and order problem in several areas of the city including Iewduh, Nongmynsong and other localities.

Many non-tribals were also assaulted by unidentified miscreants last week.

The whole issue cropped up after unidentified persons assaulted a Khasi lad William Carey Manner and three others at Balvinder Bar near Sweeper Lane, Them Iewmawlong last week.
