Imphal, August 05, 2012:
Unidentified persons attacked Additional Director and Soil Chemist (Agriculture Department) Pheiroijam Rajen by hurling a hand grenade at his residence located near Porompat TV Tower at about 11 pm yesterday.
Even though the grenade exploded, it did not cause any human casualty.
On the other hand, another hand grenade was found in front of His Grace Pharmacy near JNIMS Gate 2 at about 5.30 am today.
A piece of paper put under the grenade was inscribed with the words "PREPAK (Pro), Red Army, Nongshaba".
Even though the grenade has been retrieved by police, pharmacists doing business around JNIMS staged a protest demonstration today in denunciation of placing explosives in civilian areas.
