Acting on an input corroborated with 31 Assam Rifles, a team of CDO-Imphal West conducted a search operation at Keibung Oinam Leikai under Singjamei Police Station and arrested an alleged active member of KCP (PWG) from his residence.
The arrested individual has been identified as Lourembam Suresh (54), alias Toto alias Mairongba, son of L. Tomba Singh.
The arrest comes amid a series of cases involving suspected members and cadres of different insurgent groups being reported across Manipur in recent days.
