But it has been dragging in the trial court with no possibility for delivering justice to the victims till yet.

With regard to this brutal murder, one Head Constable of Manipur Police, Thounaojam Herojit came out with a public confession last year.

He has confessed that it was him who shot Chungkham Sanjit on the repeated orders of the then Additional SP Akoijam Jhalajit who also told Herojit that the Chief Minister and the then DGP, Yumnam Joykumar had given the same order to finish off Sanjit.

Herojit also confessed that all the rest of the eight co-accused in the case are innocent.

But, the state government has not taken up any fair step to give any effective result to this extraordinary confession till yet for obvious reasons to cover up its crime by delaying tactics in cahoot with its puppets in the judiciary and legal fraternity.

In their justification, the Court is still trying to find out the culprits.
