Imphal, March 27 2010:
The proscribed RPF denying involvement in the murder of three Manipuris at near Dimapur recently, said two of the deceased were its former cadres who had been dismissed from the armed organisation.
An RPF statement issued by its Department of Publicity chief GM Changjou said Phijam Naobi alias Chingkhu (45/46) s/o (L) Gulamjat of Thangmeiband Hijam Dewan Leikai and RK Ronel alias Gojen (34) s/o RK Gojen of Sagolband Sayang Pukhri Mapal were among the three who were abducted from a Dimapur area and murdered at Assam's Kaligao area on March 18 evening.
Informing that War Office of the PLA had on February 10, 2007 issued dismissal order of the two during which Chingkhu was a 2nd Lt and Gojen a Lt, Changjou said the duo's failure to report back to the relevant authority of the outfit led to their dismissals.
As all relationship between the two and RPF/PLA had been severed from the day the dismissal orders came into effect, the organisation has nothing to do with their demises, the statement added.
