Imphal, December 22 2018:
The Kangleipak Kanba Lup (KKL) Manipur has strongly condemned detention of Wangkhem Kishorchandra under the National Security Act.
A press release issued by the secretary general of KKL pointed out that Kishorchandra's comments posted on social media were earlier ruled as non-seditious by the Chief Judicial Magistrate before he was re-arrested under NSA.
Alleging that the act of the Government smacked of fascism under which any voice of dissent and criticism are not tolerated, KKL also condemned the shocking silence of the journalist fraternity and other CSOs over Kishorchandra's arrest.
The Lup also urged all right thinking citizens and organisations to join hands in condemning the injustice meted to the journalist.
