Imphal, November 13 2010:
Security forces have strongly refuted the false and baseless allegations made by ZSUM in a reportpublished in Hueiyen Lanpao on November 11 .
A press release from PIB(DW) clarified that 11 AR had launched a search operation in Tamenglong town on November 9 based on a specific infomation about movement of UGs with arms.
The suspected houses where the UG movement was spotted were cordoned by the troops of 11 AR.
While they were about to commence the search in one of the houses, they were told by the inhabitants that the house belonged to Dinganglui, SDO of Tousem, who had gone to Imphal.
On that revelation, the search operation was terminated immediately and the troops returned to their headquarters.
The same was also informed to the SDO on telephone by the security forces, and he had clarified that there was no complaint from his side.
A press release said, such imprudent press releases do not impinge on the commitment of Security Forces to carry out relentless operation and contain unlawful elements to maintain peace and tranquility in the region.
The Assam Rifles urged the people and the various social organisations not to be misled by any such false propaganda as the Security Forces shall always continue to strive for a better and developed society, the press release asserted.
