Manipur Police successfully arrested Irom Basker Singh, an active member of the Kanglei Yawol Kanna Lup (KCP) People’s War Group (PWG), near Mantripukhri Bazar. Singh’s arrest came after months of investigation and surveillance. He is accused of being involved in various unlawful activities that threaten the region’s stability and security.
KCP, a separatist militant organization based in Manipur, has been involved in various violent acts aimed at achieving the group’s goal of an independent Manipuri state. The group’s activities have contributed to ongoing unrest in the state, with several security operations carried out to combat their influence.
Singh’s arrest is seen as a significant breakthrough for Manipur Police in their ongoing efforts to neutralize militant groups operating in the region. Authorities believe that his apprehension will disrupt the operations of the KCP and bring greater peace to the state, which has been struggling with ethnic tensions and militant activities in recent years.
This arrest also highlights the persistent efforts of law enforcement in Manipur to combat extremism and ensure the safety of both the local population and law-abiding citizens.
