Imphal, March 16 2012:
The proscribed United National Liberation Front (UNLF) and its MPA have washed its hand off the blast that occurred yesterday near MPTC, Pangei.
In a statement, senior publicity officer of the UNLF Ksh Yoiheiba said that the police would have accessed the details of the blast by interrogating the tenants of the house where the incident occurred.
However, it could not be taken otherwise than seeing it as an attempt to contrive the involvement of UNLF in the incident by arresting Pebam Piktru alias Sharat alias Manganba son of Jilla as a UNLF cadre.
The statement elucidated that Pebam Piktru alias Sharat alias Manganba was a deserter of the outfit.
He deserted the 241 Bn of MPA on November 20, 2011 .
Since then he has had no relation with the outfit.
A deserter case is pending on him and he is declared an offender.
It is pertinent to probe whether he has any relation with a puppet gang of the security forces, it added.
