Manipur Authorities Conduct Searches to Arrest Suspects in Killing of Three Meiteis
Manipur Home Minister Govindas Konthoujam announced ongoing search operations to arrest those involved in the killing of three Meitei youths in Kangpokpi district. Security forces raided a camp linked to insurgent groups under a suspension of operations agreement, arresting three suspects, including a suspected banned KNF cadre. Operations will extend to camps of Kuki, Meitei, and Naga groups amid ongoing ethnic conflicts since May 2023, which have caused over 300 deaths and displaced thousands. The government aims to restore normalcy with impartial law enforcement.
