Imphal, March 1: The Manipur police on Thursday not only claimed that “members of Arambai Tenggol” were involved in the “attempt” on the life of a senior police officer and intimidating his family members on the evening of February 27 in Imphal but also accused the Meitei radical group of “engaging in many anti-social activities”.
Condemning the attack on additional SP (operations, Imphal West) Moirangthem Amit Singh, in a media statement issued shared details about what led to the incident, adding that Singh was “abducted, beaten and later released after timely intervention by the (police) department”.
The police said Arambai Tenggol members had “carried out targeted attack on” Singh and inspector P. Achouba Meitei.
The police statement assumes significance because it comes a day after police commandos in the valley districts staged a symbolic “arms down” protest and senior Manipur Police Service officers met chief minister N. Biren Singh on Wednesday.
The police said Arambai Tenggol members had “carried out targeted attack on” Singh and inspector P. Achouba Meitei — both of whom had conducted the search of two vehicles stolen/snatched by some unknown armed miscreants in Imphal on Tuesday.
