GUWAHATI: Three militants of Manipur’s valley-based proscribed outfits, People’s Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PREEPAK) (PRO) and People’s Liberation Army (PLA), were killed in a clash with Myanmar’s rebel groups in the neighbouring country on Wednesday.
In a statement, PREEPAK (PRO) said its two members and a self-styled captain of the Revolutionary People’s Front/People’s Liberation Army (RPF/PLA) were killed in a clash with Kuki National Front-Burma and People’s Defence Force along India-Myanmar border.
The cadres were identified as Oinam Gulu alias Babu of PLA, and Wahengbam Saratkumar alias Sopaiba and Nongmaithem Bonisana alias Nongdol of PREEPAK (PRO).
Their bodies were retrieved by the Assam Rifles and brought to Pallel police station in Kakching district on Thursday night, where they were handed over to the families.
Hundreds of people on Friday attended the last rites of the two PREEPAK (PRO) cadres. The last rites of Oinam Gulu will be performed on Saturday.
