The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has issued notices to
Manipur’s Director-General of Police and the Imphal District Magistrate
calling for reports within two months on the alleged killing of two
suspected militants, one of whom was claimed to be an innocent ice-cream
vendor, in a ‘fake encounter’ on July 30 this year.
The Commission was acting on the media reports, which said the encounter
took place at Lamdeng Khunou Chingmei near the solid waste management
plant located four km north of the Lamsang police station in Imphal West
district.
The wife of one of the deceased, Sukham Naobicha, has alleged that her husband was an ice-cream vendor.
The National Human Rights Commission asked the two officers to forward
the reports of magisterial inquiry, inquest and post-mortem of the
bodies of the two persons along with that of an independent
investigation.
