Imphal, May 25:
In what appears to be a criminal conspiracy, the rooms occupied by accountant and procurement officer of the Manipur AIDS Control Society (MACS) were torched by unidentified miscreants at about 8 am today.
Incidentally, National AIDS Control Society (NACO) is auditing the accounts of MACS.
Even though it was Sunday, the MACS office located at Lamphelpat under Lamphel police station was opened as NACO officials were auditing the accounts and activities of NGOs.

At about 8 am, officials and staff members of MACS sitting in other rooms observed smokes emitting from the rooms occupied by accountant A Ashanta and procurement officer S Ibo.
Immediately, the staff members moved in and put off the fire.
Fire fighters also helped in putting off the fire.
Staff members of MACS said that the rooms might have been torched from outside after breaking down the window.
On spot enquiry by police, MACS staff said that none of them stayed at the office in night.
They further disclosed that a registrar recording details of cheques issued and a cash book kept on the table of the accountant have been destroyed by the fire along with the table.
NACO officials have been auditing MACS accounts since May 23 .
In connection with the suspicious fire incident, accountant A Ashanta and a subordinate staff were questioned by police.
SP Imphal West L Kailun also came to the spot and inquired about the incident.
