NEW DELHI, Dec 5: The Government of India today revealed that it was in touch with the neighbouring countries to nab elusive ULFA ‘commander-in-chief’ Paresh Baruah.
According to sources, Paresh Baruah, who had been hiding in Bangladesh for many years moved to China earlier this year, and now he has been located in Myanmar’s Kachin region bordering China’s Yunan province.
Talking tough, India has also asked its neighbours to behave responsibly on the issue. Addressing reporters in New Delhi, Indian Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao said: “Well, Paresh Baruah is wanted in India for crime against Indian state, against Indian people and we continue to seek his apprehension, and we are in touch with neighbouring countries about these matters. And, we expect all our neighbours to behave responsibly on this issue.”
According to sources, elusive Paresh Baruah is hiding in Myanmar’s Kachin area, bordering China, and is under the full grip of anti-India forces like Pakistan’s ISI. Sources said Chinese official agencies like the Army were helping Baruah, not only on Chinese territory but also in Myanmar.
External Affairs Minister SM Krishna will be visiting Myanmar on December 9, and is expected to take up the issue with the Junta leadership. (Agencies)
