Manipur violence: Mob sets two vehicles on fire, intermittent firing reported

Two vehicles were set ablaze by a mob in another episode of continued violence in Manipur. The violent incident was reported in retaliation to a fire ignited in Imphal East district, officials told PTI on Saturday.Since the violent clashes broke between Manipur's Meitei and Kuki communities on May 3, more than 100 people have lost their lives and 3,000 people have been injured. The violent clashes broke after a 'Tribal Solidarity March' was organised in the hill districts to protest against the Meitei community's demand for Scheduled Tribe (ST) status.


A group of people burn two private vehicles at Mahabali Road near the historic Kangla Fort. The vehicles were burnt on the suspicion of their use for ferrying household goods to a particular ethnic community on Friday night, reported PTI. The incident was controlled on the spot after the police intervened and managed to disperse the mob. There was no casualty reported as the drivers of both vehicles managed to flee on time.




In another episode of violence late at night on Friday, the two sides continued firing at each other at Laikot near Yaingangpokpi in Imphal West district.These incidents were reported after four people including a Manipur police commando were shot dead and several others were injured in separate places in Bishnupur district.That's why around 40,000 central security personnel, besides the Manipur Police have been depoloyed to control the violence and revive normalcy in the state.
