Imphal, November 12 2012:
The 30 Assam Rifles of 9 Sector under HQ IGAR(South) strongly denied the charges made by the Students' Welfare Association of Kangleipak (SWAK) as published in some of the newspapers on Nov 11, wherein the student association secretary general, Aribam Jankinath had alleged that Finance Secretary of the association, named Md Nasirruddin, was briefly detained by a team of Assam Rifles ex Chingarel post by charging him of trying to lift a Honda Activa moped at Palace Gate.
A statement issued by the PRO of IGAR (S) stated that the reports were mere hearsay and a wrong statement published in newspaper to malign the good will and reputation of the Assam Rifles in the region.
He further added that the family members of Md Nasirruddin had confirmed that he was not taken to any post.
His family members have stated that the individual was not aware of the location where he was taken to, however he was released near Palace Gate area.
Md Nasiruddin, when contacted on phone by Assam Rifles today to find out details also intimated the same, the PRO statement added.
