Imphal: The troops of Assam Rifles Sunday dismantle a suspected training camp of Village Volunteers and Anti-national elements in Pengalep under Tengnoupla district.
Two teams of Assam Rifles launched a mission in the general area of Pengpalep along the Lokchao River to dismantle this training camp after credible intelligence, an official the AR said. The area is mainly dominated by Kuki-Zo communities.
Although the insurgents had fled the camp, evidence of insurgent training was evident, including a firing range, obstacle training course, and temporary bamboo structures.
In a swift and decisive move, all structures, including unoccupied bunkers, were demolished to prevent future utilization by insurgents. A significant cache of weapons and ammunition, including improvised grenade launchers and IEDs, was recovered and subsequently handed over to the Moreh Police Station for legal proceedings.
