Manipur: 3 PREPAK insurgency leaders killed in Myanmar in group clash

IMPHAL: As many as three senior leaders of the banned outfit, People's Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PREPAK) in Manipur, allegedly killed in a group clash in Myanmar, officials reported.

As reported, acting chairman of PREPAK Khumujam Ratan, organisation secretary Mayengbam Joychand and another member Rajkumar Ramananda were allegedly killed in Chin province of Myanmar near their hideout and buried in a forested area there last week.

They are suspected to have been killed over "finance related issues".

PREPAK's topmost leader Aheiba Angom reportedly tried to cover up the killings and claimed that they had died in a road accident last week. He also said that the last rites were performed in a PREPAK camp.

But now, the security officials have reportedly established that the PREPAK leaders were killed because of intra-group rivalry.
