In a follow-up action after the death of four militants in an encounter with security personnel in Manipur’s Churachandpur district, the Army recovered arms and ammunition and destroyed a camp of a banned outfit in the locality, a defence statement said on Wednesday.
Based on inputs about the presence of armed cadres belonging to the proscribed United Kuki National Army (UKNA), an operation was launched at Khanpi village under Henglep sub-division in the district on Tuesday, and the four militants were killed.
The operation by the Spear Corps personnel led to the “recovery of four weapons, including one AK-56, one MA4 MK II rifle, ammunition, and warlike stores,” the statement said.
