In a recent operation, Manipur Police arrested Khullem Sanjeep, alias Bhim, a 30-year-old member of the proscribed AT group, for his alleged role in the assault of two individuals from Senapati. The attack reportedly took place on October 31 in Lamsang during the early hours. Following his arrest, Sanjeep, a resident of Naoremthong DC Road, has been remanded into police custody as authorities intensify their investigation into the incident. In response to escalating security challenges and inter-community tensions, security forces have launched extensive search and area domination operations across Manipur’s hill and valley districts. The heightened measures aim to secure sensitive areas and ensure stability in the region.
To maintain a steady flow of essential supplies, security has been bolstered along National Highway-2 (NH-2), a vital lifeline for the state. On this route, a convoy of 48 vehicles carrying essential goods was successfully escorted under heavy security, with additional protection at vulnerable sections of the highway.
As part of its broader security measures, the state has set up 110 checkpoints, or ‘Nakas,’ across both hill and valley districts. These checkpoints aim to curb unauthorized activities and uphold public order. During recent patrols, seven individuals were detained for violating state regulations, reflecting the government’s commitment to enforcing security protocols and ensuring the safe movement of essential supplies throughout Manipur.
