Armed Kukis continued to cause fear psychosis among the Meitei population in the foothills as they fired some rounds of bullets from a nearby hill at Sanasabi area.
The armed Kukis fired some five rounds of bullets, however no bne was injured, said sources.
This was not an isolated incident where armed Kukis have fired at Meitei settlements in the foothills.
Since May 3, armed Kukis and their SoO militants have never ceased intermittent indiscriminate firing in the foothill areas in Imphal East, Imphal West and Bishnupur district.
On September 2, armed Kukis had come down from the hills at Thamnapokpi causing Central security forces deployed in the area to take positions for a possible standoff.
The situation didn't escalate but armed Kukis militants on the hills continue to pose a threat to security of the people in the area, said sources.
