TINSUKIA, May 18: In succession of daring operations carried out by security forces, yet another jolt was given to NSCN (IM) in Upper Asom by the troops of Dah Division resulting in apprehension of two hard core militants. Acting on a tip off, 2 Bihar Regiment and Dhemaji Police apprehended two hard core NSCN (IM) cadres namely– self styled sergeant Gobik Hai and self styled Private Rela Mgondir from Subahi village under Dhemaji district on Sunday.

The Army recovered two German made revolvers of .38 Caliber, two Chinese grenades, a large quantity of ammunition and some incriminating documents from these persons. Incidentally, these cadres were part of the same group of which one sergeant major Yong Zung Gombo was previously arrested on May 7 by Dhemaji Police and Army. The relentless efforts and perseverance on the part of this team led to the capture of two more NSCN (IM) cadres who had escaped previously. These people were present in Dhemaji to recruit fresh cadres and carry out extortion activities and were hiding in the forest near Subahi village since last few days. THE SENTINEL
