Zeliangrong United Clubs' Association Manipur Valley (Zucam-V) has strongly condemned the SPF Govt for arresting its president Meibon Phaomei from his residence at 12.30 am today.
In a statement, Zucam-V termed the arrest as a direct challenge to the legitimate and popular demand of the people of Manipur against the draconian law-APSPA and further added that SPF Govt by still imposing the Act in some parts of the State is akin to endorsing the Central security personnel slay innocent civilians.
Appealing to the State Govt to release Meibon Phaomei unconditionally, the body also expressed its gratitude to people of Manipur for the support and cooperation extended during the 14 hrs general strike called by Zucam-V.Terming the arrest of Meibon as undemocratic and inhuman, Zeliangrong Women's Society Manipur Valley has appealed to the Govt to release him immediately without any conditions.
