Lamka, May 20 2014 :
The Manipur Hill Journalists' Union is convening an emergency general body meeting tomorrow at Lamka Press Club to discuss the future course to be taken by the journalists' community following the expiry of its deadline to an SI posted at CCPur PS for tendering an apology.
The union had earlier communicated its deadline and the apology it is seeking, over the reported manhandling of one of its members, to the concerned official but has not received any communication till that time the deadline expired.
John, a sub-editor with Manipur Express has alleged that he was caught on the chest by an SI while others shoved from behind when he protested their attempt to force close a roadside omelette vendor he was having, around 7pm sometime last week.
