Imphal, March 02 2012:
The proscribed UG group RPF has clarified that Samandram Nobin alias Naocha (28) son of S Jugolo of Heirangoithong Makha Keibung Maibam Leikai who was killed by Imphal West Commandos on February 27 last was a member of the organisation only till August 2010 .
After that he had left the party following illness and he had been leading a normal life like any others since then, the outfit said in a statement.
It was a grave mistake on the part of the Commandos to kill such a person taking him to be a cadre of PLA, the armed wing of RPF, the statement contended.
The outfit also slammed the government for alleged encouragement of such killings and said that the Commandos should give up their mindset of killing of innocent people to amass wealth against the properties lost in ensuring their recruitment.
