| 2002-05-21 |
| Three militants were killed and several injured in a factional fight between underground groups at Doltang bordering Assam on Sunday last, official sources said on Tuesday. The underground Manipur People's Liberation Front (MPLF) insurgents and militants belonging to a joint group of NSCN (I-M), Zou Revolutionary Army and People's Union of Liberation Front (PULF) were locked in a gunbattle at Doltang, about 240 kilometres from Imphal. The exchange of fire between the two warring groups took place in the thick jungles and lasted for the entire day, the sources said. It took 'em all day to bump off three snuffies? The bodies of those killed were carried to the thick jungles by the militants. A spokesman of the MPLF, told PTI here that they suffered no casualties. Well, none in the office where he works, anyway... The MPLF comprises three underground groups - United National Liberation Front, People's Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak and People's Liberation Army. Thank you for that detailed examination of some of the lice on India's body politic. |
