SHILLONG: Acting on intelligence input, Shillong police on Monday arrested an HNLC cadres and an over ground worker of the outfit.
East Khasi Hills Superintendent of Police M. Kharkrang informed that based on intelligence inputs about presence of some HNLC cadres in Shillong, police carried out surveillance in several parts of the city and picked up the HNLC cadre from Mawlai Mawroh while he had gone there to meet an over ground worker of the outfit.
The HNLC cadre has been identified as John Fishal Lyngkhoi (23) of Mawlai Nongkwar while the over ground worker was identified as Roskin Phawa (55) of Umkiang village.
According to the district police chief, preliminary interrogation indicates that Lyngkhoi was recently sent back to Shillong to carry out a collection drive. He had been arrested on four occasions earlier.
Phawa had also been arrested earlier by Jowai Police for helping the banned HNLC and for facilitating cross-border movement of the outfit’s cadres besides collecting extortion money in the name of the outfit.
Kharkrang asserted that separate cases would be taken up against anyone found to have paid money to the HNLC.
The duo was forwarded to the court and subsequently remanded in ten-day police custody.
