Thoubal, February 19 2022:
As a part of the movement being launched by the 'JAC against the brutal killing of N Rohit', a large number of protesters on Saturday tried to storm the court in Thoubal district.
Police, however, thwarted the attempt by stopping the protesters near the gate of the court.
The protesters then raised slogans demanding that those accused in the murder case should not be granted bail and to expedite the process for giving befitting punishment to all those involved in the killing.
They also obstructed movement along the Imphal-Moreh road of the national highway for some time.
However, upon receiving information that the six persons accused in the murder case were not present in the court, the protesters dispersed from the area.
It may be mentioned that a student named Ningthoujam Rohit was shot dead in a pre-poll violence that took place in Heirok AC on December 21 .
