Imphal, July 28 2014 :
Forum for Our Journey (FFOJ) in its meeting held today resolved to express its displeasure over the killing of Ngalangzar Malue, former Vice Chairman of Ukhrul ADC by unidentified gunmen at Finch Corner on July 12 last.
The Forum further appealed to the Government of Manipur especially the district administration of Ukhrul for immediate revocation of Section 144 CrPC imposed in and around Ukhrul Headquarters and withdrawal of Police Commandos and IRBs from Ukhrul district as there has already been normalcy in Ukhrul Headquarters.
Continued deployment of Police Commandos and IRBs in the Town only create fear psychosis and panic among the students, men and women, a release issued by Chonmi Raleng, Convenor of FFOJ said today, while cautioning that continued militarisation of Ukhrul Headquarters by the presence of huge number of Manipur State security forces does not help in keeping the people in peace.
