Imphal, July 10 2015 :
The United Committee Manipur (UCM) has strongly denounced the detention of its president Elangbam Johnson in the lock-up for one night after he was picked up in the night of July 8 by the police on the pretext of having a talk.
It is a matter of shame for today's leaders of the State for showing arrogance and resistance to the move for the betterment of posterity, a statement issued by the UCM said.
Condoling the demise of Sapam Robinhood, the UCM said that the 'avoidable' incident occurred due to the failure of the Govt to act with prudence to the demands of the people.
Asserting that the Robinhood killing incident also happened due to ineptness of the police, the UCM said that all senior police officers involved in the incident should own up the responsibility.
The State Govt has nothing to lose in showing some political flexibility, the UCM said.
