Guwahati, November 27 2009:
Three militants, including a woman ultra, of Manipur-based Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP) outfit were arrested here today, police said.
Acting on a tip-off, a joint team of Manipur and Assam police along with the army raided the ultras' hideout at Malihata hills in Mirza near here and arrested them.
The trio are suspected to be behind the September strike on Raj Bhawan and last year's grenade attack on Manipur chief minister's residence in Imphal, police said.
The arrested cadres are 'sergeant major' Nanong Singh, KCP 'finance secretary-cum-organising secretary' Ammamam Mam Devi and cadre N Bishen Singh, police said, adding that several documents were seized during the raid.
Police also suspect that the insurgents have hidden huge quantities of arms and ammunitions in and around the Malihata Hills.
