Imphal, January 31:
Reacting to the police claim that Laishram Chandrakumar alias Michael alias Ibungo (30) of Kongba Laishram Leikai, Nameirakpam Nilamani (52) of Kongba Ucheckon and Chungtham Thomas alias Abungcha (36) of Thambalkhong Wangkhei are cadres of the PREPAK (GS group), the proscribed PREPAK has refuted the claim as false and unfounded.
The three were pulled up by Imphal West commandos at about 12.20 pm of January 28 from Keishampat Hodam Leirak junction on the same charge.
A statement issued by the outfit's Imphal West District Commander Jameson clarified that the three were not related with the outfit or its Red Army in any manner.
Reiterating that there is no such group as GS within the PREPAK, the outfit denounced the alleged police attempt to present the PREPAK as a fragmented party.
Jameson further alleged that security forces have become accustomed to making false allegations such as branding innocent civilians as UG cadres after taking them into custody.
