Corrigendum
Source: The Sangai Express
Imphal, January 18 2016:
Please refer to the article "They think they can do whatever they want - SC Urges Centre to prosecute troops for killings" (The Sangai
Express, November 29), we regret re-publica- tion of the article published by the Mail Today under the heading, "Forces under SC fire over
fake killings" .
It has come to our notice that the said arti- cles contain factually inaccurate statements
attributed to the Hon'ble Supreme Court and
the Attorney General of India.
It has further
come to our notice that the Supreme Court
has made no order in relation to the prosecu-
tion of army personnel.
We also affirm the
apology/corrigendum published by Mail To-
day dated December 11, 2015 in which it was
stated that the statement attributed to the At-
torney General that "some accidental death
may happen" during counter-insurgency op-
erations by the security forces in the Northeast
is inaccurate".
We had no intention to misre-
port court proceedings.
We sincerely express
regret and apologise to the Supreme Court and
the Attorney General.
