Imphal, November 16 2018:
The proscribed UNLF/MPA has refuted any connection whatsoever between the outfit and Takhellambam Johnson s/o T Kunjaraj of Basikhong Maimom Leikai and Okram Trilendra alias Tiken of Thoubal Sagol Tongba who have been arrested by Imphal West commandos on the charge of being over ground workers of the outfit.
Of late, police have been arresting and detaining a number of civilians as well as civil society leaders on the charge of being insurgents or having nexus with UG groups but this is not something new.
It has been going on for years as a part of the Government's policy to suppress the liberation movement and subdue people's voice, said a press release issued by the outfit's department of publicity director M Sak-hen.
But repressive measures and tactics of threatening the masses have never been able to suppress the liberation movement, it claimed.
The outfit further called upon all the people to stand united so as to fight the repressive measures collectively.
