Assam police hiding failures by arresting innocent youths, claims freedom liberation ULFA-I

The ULFA-I issued a statement, wherein it claimed that the Assam police is “randomly picking up and detaining innocent youths” as part of its investigation into the recent grenade blasts in the state.

“Assam police is trying to hide its failures by arresting those innocent youths. Such acts of the Assam police are condemnable,” the ULFA-I stated in its statement.

Recently, Paresh Baruah-led ULFA-I carried out grenade blasts near army camps in three districts of Assam – Tinsukia (November 22), Jorhat (December 14) and Sivasagar (December 09).

Jorhat, Tinsukia, Sivasagar, Dibrugarh and Charaideo districts in eastern Assam are still considered as strongholds of ULFA-I.

Notably, all the districts in Assam are on high alert and security tightened following the recent grenade blasts by ULFA-I cadres near army camps in the state.
