The Shillong Times reports that the Breakaway faction of the Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC-B) has criticized the refusal of Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) ‘commander-in-chief’ Sohan D. Shira to ANVC-B’s call to join the peace pact, alleging that he has taken a hasty decision under the “influence of his political patrons.” In a statement issued on August 4, ANVC-B ‘publicity secretary’ Doang Shira said, “The decision to decline our appeal to join the peace pact was taken by a few people without consulting the top leaders of the organization which has triggered some difference in opinions among the (GNLA) cadres.” The ANVC-B said that Sohan’s patrons assured him of talks with the Government which if achieved is a good scheme but if fails, lives will be lost.

Two militants of GNLA, who have reportedly broken ties with the outfit to operate ‘independently’, were arrested in Tura in West Garo Hills District on August 6. One of the main leaders of the group that had abandoned the GNLA was arrested from Chandmari market with a female companion while proceeding to board a Winger Taxi to go out of the town. He was identified as Sengsan R Marak (21). Police seized an automatic pistol with a magazine and live ammunition, a wireless set, two mobile phones and GNLA demand notes from him. “He was a deputy area commander and he was planning to travel to link up with an arms dealer from Assam when we caught him,” said Mukesh Kr Singh, Superintendant of Police (SP), Tura. Based on his confession, a Police team raided Janga locality and arrested another cadre of the outfit identified as Senton K Marak (21). It was revealed that while the cadres were no longer under the command of the GNLA, yet, they continued to operate under the outfit’s name and were issuing demand notes and extorting money in its name.“They had planned to undertake a massive extortion drive in Tura by serving demand notes and with the money they received they were planning to purchase weapons,” said the Police chief.

The Shillong Times reports that Garo National liberation Army (GNLA) militants triggered an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) blast targeting six Police personnel, travelling in a bullet proof truck, at Nengkhra in the East Garo Hills District on August 7. “It was a claymore IED put on the roadside of the culvert. Two IEDs were placed but one did not explode. Our vehicle sustained slight damage but is in running condition,” said Superintendent of Police J F K Marak. Police retrieved another such device which failed to explode. Around 30 meters of fuse wire used to charge the firing mechanism was also retrieved from the site of the ambush. The IED blast was reportedly undertaken by a special militant team of the GNLA under direct operational command of its ‘chief’ Sohan D Shira reportedly to avenge the death of a senior leader and ‘deputy area commander’ Pilon M Sangma alias Markus of its central command who was shot dead in a Police operation on July 19. The Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I) is suspected to have supplied the IED to the GNLA for operational use.
