Angtha Apunba Meira Paibi Lup and Poirouk-hongjil Apunba Meira Paibi Lup jointly organised a sit-in protest at Yairipok Thambalnu market on Monday against the arrest of three leaders/cadres of the Pambei-led UNLF while demanding their early and unconditional release.
Protestors held placards inscribed "Do not attempt to derail peace talks", "Keep ceasefire agreement meaningful", and "Release arrested UNLF cadres at the earliest" among others.
Interacting with the media, Poiroukhongjil Apunba Meira Paibi Lup secretary Laishram Chonjonbi strongly condemned arrest of the three and demanded the state and central governments to take up necessary measures to release them unconditionally at the earliest.
She also warned of launching intense agitation if they are not released.
