Imphal, July 14 2016:
A hand grenade was found just beside the petrol
filling machine of NRL Energy Station, Mantripukhri, Imphal
East district at around 11.30 am today.
The grenade was retrieved by a bomb disposal squad of
Manipur Police and it was set off safely at a paddy field
located between Achanbigei and Koirengei in the afternoon.
It was speculated that the grenade was placed there in
connection with a monetary demand.
Nonetheless, a case has been registered at Heingang police
station and due investigation has been launched.
On the other hand, a protest demonstration was staged
today at Kakwa Asem Leikai community hall against placing
a hand grenade at the residence of JNIMS Director Dr
Laishram Deben yesterday.
