Imphal, March 03 2016:
The BJP Manipur unit has slammed the State Government for its failure to book the culprits involved in the murder of a school teacher, Ts Thongkhogin Haokip.
Addressing media persons today at the office of BJP Manipur located at Nityapat Chuthek, State party general secretary M Ashnikumar said that the failure of the Govt to book the culprits even though the accused persons were mentioned in the FIR filed in connection with the killing at Tengnoupal PS shows the lack of governance in the State.
He said that the silence maintained by the Dy CM Gaikhangam who is also in-charge of Home and concerned officials over the matter is not justifiable.
He strongly urged the State Govt to settle the matter at the earliest in order to facilitate conduct of last rite of the deceased person.
The State Govt should hand over the case to Central agency like NIA if it is incapable of solving the case, Ashnikumar demanded.
The BJP shared the grief and pain of the bereaved family while also appealing to all concerned to refrain from such acts.
The BJP urged the State Govt especially the Police Dept to act swiftly and book the culprits involved in the killing.
