Imphal, February 12 2014:
A sit-in-demonstration was held yesterday at Tera Lukhram Leirak community hall to denounce bomb attack at the residence of Manipur Development Society's (MDS) Superintending Engineer Salam Roopkumar of the locality.
Unidentified miscreants reportedly carried out a bomb attack at Roopkumar's house at around 8.30 pm Monday with the explosion shattering the window panes and wall of the building.
The bomb attack is said to be third such incident in recent times as explosive devices were also lobbed at the residential complex twice but did not explode.
Lamphel police have registered a case and investigation already underway.
Taking serious note of the bomb attack and appealing to all concerned to abstain from such acts in the future, some of the protestors said Tera Lukram Leirak usually remains busy as the general public including sportspersons frequent the road stretch along which Roopkumar's house lies.
The sit-in protest was held under the aegis of the local women organisations.
