Dispute over drug money behind Manipur firing that killed 4; situation calm, CM promises action
Tuesday, 2 January 2024 Tranquility prevails in Manipur's Thoubal district's minority-heavy Lilong Chingjao area despite recent violence. Four villagers were fatally shot by members of the outlawed People's Liberation Army (PLA). The death toll rose to four after another victim succumbed to injuries, and two others are critical in an Imphal hospital's ICU. PLA militants targeted a resident of Lilong Chingjao, leading to the expulsion of the PLA members. The PLA's political wing, Revolutionary People's Front (RPF), acknowledged the gunmen were from their ranks and announced an internal investigation.
Thousands protested in Imphal, Manipur, against recent drone attacks, marching towards the high-security zone near government buildings. Security forces used tear gas to disperse the crowd as they neared restricted areas. Protesters demanded action against drone attacks and the removal of the state police chief. The demonstrations highlight growing tensions in Manipur following the first-ever use of armed drones in the region.
