Assam Rifles nabs DJNA cadres along with weapons and ammunition

SILCHAR, Jan 1: With the increased activities of militant groups in Halflong, the security forces have stepped up their operation against the insurgent groups in the district.
A recent input received by the Army Intelligence Unit suggested a possible procurement of explosives at Haflong for further use to carry out sabotage activities. Based on the development of this input, it came out that an auto-rickshaw ferrying cadres of recently launched DJNA outfit would arrive in the market area. Accordingly, the Haflong based Assam Rifles Battalion along with Assam Police jointly established a vehicle check post to nab the cadres.
At around 10.30 am on last Sunday (December 30), an auto Rickshaw with the registration number of AS-08-3538 approached the Check Post. After thorough search of the vehicle, one 7.65mm Pistol (USA made) was recovered with magazine along with 5 live RDX and one Chinese Grenade. The cadres later revealed before the security personnel that they were working for the DJNA outfit and had come to Haflong with an intention to carry out extortion and give effect to sabotage activities.
In a series of successful operations in the last four weeks, the Haflong based Assam Rifles Battalion has broken another link of the DJNA outfit and caused a setback to their evil intention to harm the people of the Dima Hasao district.
