Imphal, May 08 2016:
In accordance with a decision adopted at a public meeting, the body of Sagolsem Prasanta alias Abung was claimed for the last rites today by the family and the JAC.
A press release issued by the JAC Against the Brutal Killing of Sagolsem Prasanta alias Abung said that the body was claimed as Lai Haraoba celebration of the local deities could not be closed without performing the last rites of the deceased.
However, different modes of agitation being spearheaded by the JAC would go on until the facts and circumstances leading to the death of Prasanta are established and all the culprits are booked.
Yet, the agitation would remain suspended on Monday as the Lai Haraoba celebration of the local deities would be closed tomorrow, conveyed the JAC.
