On Thursday, Manipur Police arrested as many as 16 active cadres of the proscribed Kanglei Yawol Kanna Lup (KYKL), KCP (City Meitei), and the United National Liberation Front (P) and recovered a huge cache of arms, ammunition and other valuables from their possession.
According to official sources, the arrested individuals were involved in various subversive activities, including extortion, recruitment, and planning of attacks on security forces.
Following Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla’s big appeal for an end to hostilities and the surrender of illegal arms in seven days, security forces, based on inputs and tip-offs from local sources, launched a series of coordinated operations and made these arrests from different parts of the state including Bishnupur, Kakching, and Imphal East districts.
