Imphal, Jul 27:
Even as numerous social organisations have condemned the killing of a civilian, during an encounter between NSCN (IM) and Assam Rifles at Leingangching yesterday, the family members and villagers have still not taken back the body, demanding justice.
The body of the victim, SM Premson Lamkang is still lying at RIMS morgue.
A memorandum was submitted to the Chief Minister today in connection with the death of the civilian.
The main demands of the memorandum include punishment of the officer in charge of 21 AR post at Pangaltabi, Rs three lakh compensation to the family members of the deceased as ex-gratia and giving a Government job to a family member of the victim.
Two personnel of the Assam Rifles were also inured in the gun fight.
