Imphal, November 20 2009:
Coming out strongly against the incident of opening fire and causing injury to the owner of Janata Cinema Konjengbam Jiten at his own Moirang Patlou residence in Bishnupur district on the night of November 18, a meeting of the local residents adopted various resolutions.
Rejecting the charges of the proscribed KCP-MC (Lamyanba Khuman) that Jiten is an Army informer and that he was responsible for the killing of two of its cadres in April by security personnel as baseless, the meeting resolved that Jiten is innocent.
The meeting also questioned the outfit whether the injured victim is again going to be held responsible for the arrest of the three cadres who were involving in the attack by the police.
It may be recalled here after the November 18 night incident of firing attack on Jiten, the police have arrested three persons along with two pistols yesterday morning.
Furthermore, the meeting decried misuse of the name of the party for settling personal score and levelling false charges against innocent people and appealed to all concerned to pay attention to such unhealthy trend.
While resolving to ensure such incidents are not repeated, the meeting also decided that the public of Moirang would stand together for any eventuality.
