Imphal: Demand for release of Irungbam Irabanta, who has been allegedly abducted by NSCN-IM, unabated with the Joint Action Committee ( JAC) constituted in connection with his disappearance submitting a memorandum to state Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh on Monday even as the JAC tried to organize a protest rally in the street.
However, police thwarted the protesting JAC members from further advancing the rally near Sanjenthong. Later they allowed three JAC members to submit a memorandum to the state CM urging him to secure Irabanta’s release. Many members from various civil societies, including All Manipur United Clubs’ Organisation (AMUCO), Poirei Leimarol Apunba Meira Paibi Lup and other civil bodies based in Nongdam area were present at Monday’s demonstration.
The JAC in the memorandum urges the government to fulfill its demands within five days else it will take up various forms of agitation. (NNN)
