Imphal, August 20 2011:
The proscribed PREPAK has refuted any connection whatsoever between the party and Laiphrakpam (O) Sumi (31) w/o L Lala of Langthabal Phura Makhong who was reportedly arrested by Imphal East commandos from JN Hospital crossing at about 11.30 am yesterday.
Reacting to the claim of Imphal East SP that Sumi joined PREPAK under Itaoba alias Rohit of Heirok Part 1, currently lodged in Sajiwa Jail, a press release issued by the outfit's publicity officer Sanju Oinam clarified that Sumi is the aunt of Itaoba.
Accusing some innocent civilians of being UG activists and arresting them because they happened to be relatives of some UG cadres is not a new thing Manipur Police, it alleged.
