Saying that an understanding has been reached between the JAC against the custodial death of Md Manjur Ahmad, CSOs and the State Government during a meeting held last night, the said JAC has resolved to suspend its agitation which was announced earlier and appealed all to attend the last rites of Md Manjur Ahmad at his birthplace at Yairipok.
Speaking to media persons during a press meet held at Hatta this evening, JAC convenor, Salim Azad said that the decision to drop its agitation was taken after the Chief Minister gave a positive response regarding the matter and also assured to hand over the case to a Central investigating agency.
Taking note of the assurance given by the State Government to register FIR in connection with the custodial death against the involved police personnel and to hand over the case to a Central independent investigating agency during the meeting, the JAC decided to claim the body from JNIMS morgue, said AMMWCOC president, SM Jalal.
