Militants own responsibility for killing three persons

Imphal, Mar 27 : Banned People’s Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (Prepak) has owned responsibility for the March 24 incident in which three persons including two girls were shot dead in Thoubal district of Manipur.

In a statement here Wednesday, Prepak said ” two girls - I. Nirmala (17) and Th Promila (16)– and a youth identified as Th. Romesh (21) were killed at Heirok village while the victims were celebrating ‘thabal chongba’ dance festival in connection with holi on Monday night.”

Requesting the people to pardon the outfit for killing the two girls, the statement said Prepak was attempting to eliminate Romesh for colluding with enemies of Prepak and for trying to kill Prepak members.

It claimed while opening fire at Romesh, stray bullets also hit the two girls and injured another girl also.
