Imphal, October 31:
The proscribed outfit PREPAK has clarified that Ningthoujam Yaiskul (49) and Laimapokpam Dilip Singh) whom a combined force of Imphal East Commandos, Imphal West Commandos, AR and 57 Mountain Division claimed to have arrested from Thoubal Laxmi Bazar in the morning of October 28 have no connection with the outfit nor with its armed wing red Army.
The claim that both of them are working under the command of Lt Sidaba is also baseless, the secretary in-charge of department of publicity and propaganda of the outfit said in a statement, clarifying further that there is no cadre by the name of Lt Sidaba in the outfit.
It is the old trick of the security forces to arrest innocent persons and dubbed them as underground activists, the statement added.
