No end, houses of 5 more MLAs set afire
On Sunday, protestors placed iron bars on the roads despite the curfew. On Saturday, a mob tried to barge into the ancestral residence of chief minister N Biren Singh at Luwangshangbam in Imphal East district. However, security forces managed to thwart their entry. Mobs have gone rampage after the recovery of the bodies of six missing women and children in violence-hit Jiribam district. A couple of bodies, which are not yet identified by the family members, are believed to be of the six women and children missing since November 11 in Jiribam district.
Curfew has been imposed in several areas and internet ban has been extended to two more districts of Jiribam and Pherzawl. Temporary suspension of Internet and mobile data service in Imphal West, Imphal East, Thoubal, Kakching, Bishnupur, Kangpokpi and Churachandpur was clamped on Saturday for two days.
Mobs set fire to the residences of PWD Minister Govindas Konthoujam at Ningthoukhong and that of four more legislators — three more of the BJP and one of the Congress — in various districts of the Manipur Valley since Saturday night. Police said the mob attacked the residences of ministers Sapam Ranjan Singh, Leishangthem Susindro Meitei and Yumnam Khemchand Singh in different places.
The MLAs and their family members were not at home when the mobs attacked their residences. However, the mob vandalised vehicles and properties and set two houses on fire.
