The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has arrested three members of Manipur based insurgent group United National Liberation Front (UNLF) on charges of abetting terrorism and fanning insurgency with financial help.
The probe agency zeroed in on these men while probing UNLF activities after the arrest of its chief R K Meghen in 2009. Meghen was chargesheeted along with 18 others in February last year.
An NIA official said, "We have arrested three people. They will be produced before court as we are also planning to seek their remand. Those arrested were among the senior cadres of the outfit. We are in the process of identifying their bank accounts where large sums of money are believed to have been deposited."
The NIA had earlier detailed different email ids and satellite phones used by the cadres to avoid the police. "The emails retrieved from cadre members provides insight into UNLF activities including budget provision, funds collection and distribution, violence committed by UNLF, attempts to procure weapons from foreign countries, use of existing weapons and running of terrorist camps," said an NIA official.
The agency has also brought evidence to suggest that the UNLF leadership held two meetings in China in 2009. The first meeting was on January 18, 2009 and the second was on September 28, 2009 at Rulli in China.
