Imphal, December 13 2011:
A protest demonstration was staged today at Sagolband Bijoy Govinda against the shooting of RK Thabaton in connection with a land dispute yesterday.
The protest was participated by the local people as well as family members of Thabaton.
They put up placards which read as, "We condemn shooting women by mercenary", "Guns are not toys", "Don't take law into one's hands", "Don't play with human life", "Money cannot buy life" etc.
RK Thabaton of Sagolband Bijoy Govinda Mamang Leikai was shot by one RK Naocha from neighbouring Sagolband Bijoy Govinda Mayai Leikai last morning.
One woman relative of Thabaton who took part in the protest demonstration said that they were being threatened unabated.
Yesterday's gun attack was a deliberate act though other people escaped unhurt, she asserted.
