Giving several facts about the Myanmar base of the NSCN-K, which by virtue of being a Myanmarese rebel group in ceasefire with its Government, has 'rented' out parts of the area under its control in Saigang to the Indian outfits. If the rebel group is engaged in either gun running or opium cultivation, they have to pay 15% of their income to the Khaplang group. Sumi told the interrogators that the physical condition of the ageing 75-year-old NSCN-K supremo, SS Khaplang, a Myanmarese Naga, is far from healthy and he needs assistance to move from one place to place.

Chirang Police foiled an attempt by I.K. Songbijit faction of the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB-IKS) militants and their sympathisers to remit money obtained through extortion to their camps in Myanmar and arrested five persons in connection with this case, reports The Telegraphon September 8. Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP), Chirang, Tabu Ram Pegu, said the accused had planned to transfer INR 40,000 to a bank account in Nagaland and from there human couriers would have been used to ship the money to the outfit's camps in the forests of Myanmar. "They tried to transfer the money from the Basugaon branch of the State Bank of India (SBI) yesterday (September 7) but could not do so because of link failure at the bank. They would have tried it again today but before that we arrested them and seized the money," he said. "The cash seized from them was part of Rs 60,000 that they had extorted from one Kumar Basumatary, a timber smuggler from the Khungring area of Chirang District, some days ago," ASP said.The series of arrests began with 22-year-old NDFB-IKS cadre Daukha Narzary alias Dopthai. He was arrested from the Sundari area under Sidli Police Station of Chirang District on September 7 evening during an operation launched on the basis of a tip-off. Narzary belongs to the 40th batch of NDFB-IKS cadres and was trained in Myanmar. Based on his confession, two linkmen, identified as Kwmtha Basumatary and Swrangsar Basumatary were arrested from Rangsaidam under Basugaon Police Station in Chirang District on September 7 night and INR 40,000 was recovered from them. "Further questioning of the accused persons revealed names of their other accomplices and multiple raids were conducted and two more linkmen of the outfit, Bhim Basumatary and Jwngdao Basumatary were apprehend from Kashikotra under Sidli Police Station around 1.30pm today (September 8)," the ASP said.According to Security Forces (SFs), the NDFB-IKS has stepped up its extortion drive in the Bodoland Territorial Area Districts (BTAD) and adjoining areas though their cadres and linkmen as the outfit has been going through a major financial crunch. The militant group is using linkmen and sympathisers, mostly local youths belonging to poor families including girls, to carry out extortions.

As per the new directives, the Superintendents of Police (SPs) of all the Districts will have to henceforth file a detailed monthly status report on the untraced infiltrators. The monthly report by the respective SPs must also carry the reasons behind the respective District Police’s inability to catch the illegal immigrants missing from their respective areas of jurisdiction. “We want an improved synergy among all the 500 police units and task forces meant for tracking down untraced Bangladeshis. The baggage of 38,000 untraced illegal immigrants is a bit too much to carry,” official sources told The Assam Tribune. The Home Department has also asked the law-enforcers to intensify search operation against the untraced infiltrators with improved intelligence sharing. It has also asked all the SPs to devise strategies to nab the illegal foreigners who are on the run, and, if necessary, put them on surveillance.

The ULFA-I led by Paresh Barua launched a recruitment drive in the Sate to replenish its depleting strength, reports The Telegraphon September 18. A Police source said that the latest recruitment was being carried out under the supervision of the outfit's ‘operational commander’ Nayan Medhi in Districts like Udalguri and Darrang, apart from its traditional strongholds of Tinsukia, Dibrugarh and Sivasagar. "It came to light after the arrest of three newly-recruited cadres from a Tinsukia-bound bus at Tezpur on Thursday (September 15) night while they were on their way to the outfit's camps in Myanmar for arms training," the source said. The trio hails from Harisinga in Udalguri District. SATP on September 17 reported that five newly recruited ULFA-I cadres from Sonitpur, Tinsukia and Udalguri Districts on September 15 night.Also, resentment is brewing in Jorhat after the banned ULFA-I served extortion demand to many noted Punjabi businessmen of the Jorhat District, besides the regular demand to other businessmen of the Marwari and Bihari community, tea garden owners and State Government officers, reports The Sentinel on September 18. Notably, the demand has come from the ‘chairman’ of the ULFA-I, Abhizeet Axom, as depicted in the calls and text messages sent, asking contribution as party fund towards the cause of the ULFA movement. The other demand has come from Jibon Axom. A close study of ULFA reveals that every cadre from the bottom to the top hierarchy acquires a single and unique name which is neither transferable nor can be acquired by anyone else even for making calls for demand or sending press releases to the print or electronic news channels. The demand by the ULFA ‘chairman’ Abhizeet Axom has created terror and sensation among the community. A top source of the police has informed about numerous cases being registered across various police stations of the District with one in Mariani, Titabor, Teok and Jorhat Police station. The demand ranges from INR 5 lakh to INR 50 lakh. Allegations of low Police investigation and sense of insecurity have gripped the people.The Shillong Times adds that Security Forces (SF) and Assam Police engaged in counter-insurgency (CI) operation in Assam have mounted vigil against the proscribed ULFA-I which has started using social media like WhatsApp to send extortion demands to soft targets besides engaging linkmen or over ground agents to collect fund on their behalf. A senior Police official overseeing law and order in the State informed that the ULFA-I had resorted to extortion drive especially targeted at the tea estates in eastern Assam where tea executives live in remote, vulnerable areas. He informed that a senior executive of Santak Tea Estate in Sivasagar District was arrested two days back for making payment to a linkman as per extortion demand of the ULFA-I. The official said the outfit, of late, has started using social media to convey extortion demand to soft targets to escape detection by SFs. The Police become awake to the new modus operandi of the ULFA-I, which is led by fugitive ‘commander-in-chief’ Paresh Barua, in respect of carrying out extortion and preventive measures have been put in place.

The close proximity between the Paresh Baruah-led Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I) and China came to the fore again on September 26 when the faction asked the Hindu Yuva Chhatra Parishad (HYCP) to withdraw its appeal to ban Chinese products in the State, reports The Shillong Times. The ULFA-I in a statement emailed to the media stated that the neighbouring China had been maintaining a historic and friendly relations with the people of Assam and would continue maintain the good relations in future too. “The people of consumer state of Assam who have been exploited by Indian traders, have the right to buy cheaper good (Chinese items) available in the market and no one should try to disrupt that at the dictation of the RSS and the BJP,” the ULFA-I statement said.The outfit further asked the president Balen Baishya and general secretary Dipankar Gohain of the state unit of HYCP to keep in mind Assam’s historic ties with China and desist from making such appeal to the people of Assam acting as a stooge of the RSS and the BJP. The outfit further warned the two leaders of befitting action in case they dared to make such statement against Chinese goods in future.
