William was involved in a series of abductions along the Kherapara-Dalu Road and one occasion shot an unarmed off-duty policeman who was heading home to Dalu.
He later fled to Assam from where he orchestrated several kidnappings in North Garo Hills region of Resubelpara and Mendipathar.
With a rag tag group of criminals, he formed A’chik National Cooperative Army and even managed to procure a powerful American made automatic assault rifle.
After being on the run for much of the time, he was caught by Goalpara district police and handed over to Meghalaya where he was serving time in the Tura District Jail until he made the Friday escape.
