SHILLONG: Former Lok Sabha Speaker and NPP leader PA Sangma on Sunday demanded an independent and impartial probe into the killing of four ANVC-B cadres including the political secretary of the outfit, Ajaju Marak, who revealed the alleged nexus of Chief Minister with ANVC (B) militants.
In a statement issued to the media, Sangma said that there should be an independent and impartial enquiry into the incident and the Government should come out with the truth and also disclose the details of the identity of all slain militants.
While condemning the nexus between Chief Minister and militant outfits, Sangma questioned the suspicious manner in which four ANVC-B militants were killed in the encounter at Daren Agal in West Garo Hills on January 11.
“Ajaju Marak, Political Secretary of ANVC-B who had recently disclosed the links between Dr. Mukul Sangma and the ANVC-B was also reportedly one of the militants killed in the police encounter, and this is being perceived by the people of Garo Hills as a bid to silence Ajaju Marak once and for all”, the NPP leader said.
