SHILLONG: Seeking a high-level probe into police action on the crowd that gathered at Laban Sports Club ground for a public meeting on May 29, the Khun Kynthei U Hynniewtrep Association (KKUHA) has decided to knock on the doors of Home Minister Roshan Warjri.
“We will soon meet the Home Minister in this connection,” the KKUHA president R Jyrwa told newsmen here on Wednesday.
It may be recalled that several protesters including women   were injured when police resorted to lathi charge  at the Laban Sports Club ground on Friday evening.
“More than 30 women were injured in the incident. This action of police needs to be strongly condemned,” Jyrwa said.
Supporting the demand of the women’s body, Goldy Warjri, who staged a 17-day-long fast along with former KHADC CEM Adelbert Nongrum recently, said, the guilty cops should be punished.
