Imphal, September 07, 2009:
Joining the mass movement against the July 23 twin killings, school students staged protest demonstrations at different places today.
Shouting similar slogans like, "Chief Minister Ibobi, resign", "punish criminal commandos", "Repeal AFSPA" etc, students of St George School Wangkhei, North Eastern English School and Mangoljao English School took protest rallies.
The student protesters carried posters which displayed photographs published by Tehelka, the corpse of Rabina inside coffin and also the earthen pot containing Rabina's unborn child.
The posters were emblazoned with the words, 'Resign, CM Ibobi], 'Punish criminal commandos' and 'Repeal AFSPA'.
Students of St George School were prevented from taking the protest rally any further by police at Wangkhei Meihoubam Lampak.
The students of North Eastern English School and Mangoljao English School were also blocked by police at Lamlong Bazar.
Sit-in-protest:
JAC constituted against the death of Th Rabina condemned police high handedness and seizure of placards and festoons during a sit-in-protest staged today.
A press of the JAC said that such police action would infuriate the already hurt sentiments of the public.
Slogans like, resign CM Ibobi, punish involved commandos, repeal AFSPA, we can't accept Justice Agarwal commission and release Apunba Lup functionaries were inscribed in placards.
