Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) will be providing security to the team of Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) which is visiting the violence-hit areas in Manipur. On Wednesday (September 27), a CBI team led by Special Director Ajay Bhatnagar reached Imphal to investigate the alleged kidnapping and killing of two students days after they went missing.
“To ensure speedy investigation and keeping the safety of CBI officials on priority, CRPF personnel will accompany them during their visits in violence-hit areas for investigation purposes,” the official added.
At present, CBI has registered around 11 FIRs, including the viral video of two young tribal women paraded naked. The investigation in all the cases are currently underway.
Violence has gripped Manipur since Mat 3 following protest by the Kuki and Meitei community against the High Court’s order asking the state government to consider the inclusion of the Meitei community in the category of scheduled Tribes (ST).
