The JAC formed in connection with the death of Takhellambam Rakesh, who was found dead with a bullet wound inside DM University campus under Imphal Police Station, has refused to claim the body until the culprits involved in the crime are apprehended.
On Sunday, the JAC along with Yaiskul Women Association staged a sit-in protest against the death, at Yaiskul Moirangkhom.
Speaking on the sidelines, JAC convenor Shantibala Leimapokpam contended that Rakesh's death was not a suicide but murder.
Someone placed the gun by his side to make his death look like a suicide, she claimed and condemned such heinous acts amidst the prevailing violence and demanded the person(s) responsible to be arrested, failing which the body would not be claimed.
However, the post mortem examination of Rakesh was conducted RIMS morgue on Sunday.
