Khaidem Basanta (35) who hacked and attempted to murder his cousin has been banished from Mayang Imphal Thana Ani Longbi locality along with his family.
The local people also pulled down Basanta's house before setting it on fire today.
These acts of punishment, taken up collectively, were executed in accordance to the resolutions adopted at a meeting held in connection with the murder attempt at Mayang Imphal Thana Ani Longbi today.

A joint action committee christened JAC Against the Brutal Life Attempt to Khaidem Warjit was also constituted after the meeting.
