Shillong: After the killing of two surrendered Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) cadres, Sohan D Shira, ‘commander-in-chief’ of the outfit has claimed that the outfit has embarked on a mission to eliminate any surrendered GNLA cadre who is working against the outfit.

Speaking of their ‘Operation Blood’, Sohan spelled out that the operation is to eliminate any GNLA cadre who has surrendered and is working as an informer or participating in police operations against the outfit and also those cadres who had surrendered along with arms but have not paid back the price of the weapons they surrendered to the police.

The GNLA chief claimed that the outfit had killed surrendered GNLA cadre, Chonkam, because he had run off with several weapons and later surrendered but had not paid back the price of the weapons to the outfit even after the GNLA had asked him to do so.

He stated that other surrendered cadres who have also not paid the price of the weapons shall meet the same fate as Chonkam.

Naming a few surrendered cadres — Satho of Mindikge, Rakhu Sangma of Bawegri, Jadoreng Sangma of Balsrigittim and Bikram Sangma of Balsrigittim — who are paying back the money, Shira said that cadres who are paying back the cost of the weapons have nothing to fear from the outfit.

“Surrendered cadres who are working as informers and assisting the police in operations against the outfit will become targets of the GNLA,” he added.

It may be mentioned that on last week in a twin strike, GNLA cadres shot dead VDP secretary Sengkan K Sangma and left a note written on a GNLA writing pad that the outfit killed him because he was working as a police informer.

A surrendered cadre, Chonkam alias Sengku, was also killed at Nongalbibra for not paying back the price of the weapons he had surrendered to police.
