Imphal, September 28 2021:
While denouncing the abduction of Zeliangrong Baudi former president and advisor Athuan Abonmai in broad day light in front of security forces and his subsequent brutal murder, All Manipur Muslim Organisations' Co-Ordinating Committee (AMMOCOC) has categorically stated that the responsibility of the untoward incident should be fixed on Tamenglong DC, SP and higher ups of the inteligence department.
Speaking to media persons at its Hatta office on Tuesday, AMMOCOC president SM Jalal observed that the abduction of Athuan from a programme attended by the CM amidst the tight security and in front of the very eyes of the security personnel testiftes complete collapse of security machinery in the state.
The abduction and subsequent murder of Athuan is highly suspicious as security forces did not take any prompt actions to rescue Abonmai.
Moreover, the mere transfer of Tamenglong SP and DC is not adequate, he added.
Enquiring whether non-state actors will continue to kill people like Athuan Abonmai for having political differences in the future as well, Jalal said that the actions taken up by the government subsequent to the murder of Athuan is not satisfactory.
He further urged the government to initiate effective investigation regarding the incident at the earliest.
While declaring that AMMOCOC will extend solidarity and moral support to any movement of the people demanding justice for Athuan Abonmai, Jalal appealed to the people of Manipur for taking a firm resolution so that justice is served.
