Imphal, May 03 2011:
A man in his early 40s has been found dead inside his own vehicle at near Catholic School in Canchipur this morning.
The deceased person identified, later in the day, as one Irom Haimo (43) of Chingamakha Liwa Lambi Ahongsangbam Leikai, was spotted by some morning joggers laying unconscious on the back-seat of his recently purchased i-10 car at around 5 am.
Family members claimed that a gold chain (necklace) and ATM cards, which Haimo possessed at the time of going out from home in late morning yesterday were found missing.
While police sources informed that Haimo's mouth was found spattered in a froth-like substance along with bruised marks on both legs (ankle area), family members contended that they are not aware of Haimo's indulgence, if any, in drug use or consumption of other intoxicating substances.
A impromptu public meeting held at the victim's locality later in the morning endorsed formation of a joint action committee which was followed by submission of a complaint memorandum to the Chief Minister.
The JAC representation demanded a thorough investigation into the case and arrest of those involved in the murder of Haimo.
Attention of the Government was also drawn for all possible assistance to the spouse and children of the deceased.
The victim's body was subsequently claimed by the family members and relative after completion of post mortem at RIMS morgue.
