Imphal, October 30 2010:
Many Civil Society Organisations of Manipur continue to demand precise whereabouts of UNLF Chairman RK Meghen @ Sana Yaima from the state and the Union governments while the Ethno Heritage Council (HERICOUN) is perturbed over the unsual silence of the Government of India despite media reports that Bangladesh has officially informed New Delhi about RK Meghen's arrest.
At the same time, Advance Women Society, Awang Sekmai, Imphal West district has said that the Government of Manipur should convince the Centre to take advantage of the situation and try to bring about a political solution.
In a press release, HERCOUN said that even though media has reported that the Chairman of UNLF has been arrested in Dhaka and taken to India on one hand, and even the Vice Chairman of the insurgent organisation has admitted that the Chairman has been arrested, the Government of India has not come out with the truth, which is not fair at all.
This is not a democratic norm.
It is quite natural that he, as an underground leader, should be tried under the law of the land.
But keeping an arrested insurgent leader hidden for a long time without letting his whereabouts known to the people makes it a logical ground for the people to feel suspicious.
Therefore, people should naturally raise voices and turn towards agitation.
