Meanwhile, Garo Hills Police seized a large amount of explosives, including electronic detonators, from a Tura-registered vehicle abandoned by its occupants after Police set up a road block in the Bajengdoba region of North Garo Hills on January 5, reports The Shillong Times. The banned United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) of Assam is believed to be the owner of the explosives and was reportedly sending it across to the banned Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) in Garo Hills when Police set up a surprise road check point in Bajengdoba, 80 kilometres from Tura, after receiving intelligence inputs about the shipment of the explosives. When Police searched the vehicle they found as many as 1200 gelatin explosive sticks which are used by militants to prepare Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) to target Security Forces (SFs). Police also recovered as many as 1000 electronic detonators and 100 non-electronic detonators. Both detonators are required for triggering IED explosions.

Meanwhile, a hardcore Garo national Liberation Army (GNLA) militant, identified as Pensing A Sangma alias Belbong alias Cherakpa, who took part in an ambush on a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) patrol party leading to two Security Force (SF) personnel sustaining bullet injuries in 2014, surrendered to Police without any weapon in Resubelpara in North Garo Hills District on January 6, reports The Shillong Times.

In spite of the denial by Garo national Liberation Army (GNLA) that it had no hand in the Improvise Explosive Device (lED) blast at Williamnagar town in East Garo Hills District on January 9, Meghalaya Police has confirmed that it was the handiwork of the outfit with the assistance from United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA), reports The Shillong Times. A senior Police official on January 10, said that Police has enough evidence to show the blast was an outcome of the ongoing negotiations and a co-operation between GNLA and anti-talks faction of ULFA based in Bangladesh. Police said that the evidence indicated that there have been talks between GNLA supremo Sohan D. Shira and Deputy Commander in Chief of ULFA Drishti Rajkhowa alias Manoj Rabha. According to Police, the links between GNLA and ULFA seem to have been renewed last year during ‘Operation Hill storm’ when Sohan D. Shira fled Meghalaya and camped in Bangladesh for many months. ”In the renewed talks held three months ago, GNLA had asked for the services of an ULFA cadre named Aprai who is claimed to be an IED making expert. Some of the GNLA cadres were also sent for training in IED making in the ULFA camps in Bangladesh. Aprai is said to have strong connections in North Garo Hills district”, a Police source said.

One Kali Biswas (50), who was abducted from near Songsak a few days ago, was found killed, allegedly by the Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) cadres, on January 12, reports The Assam Tribune. The body of Biswas was later recovered a little further away from the spot where an exchange of fire between the Police and the militants had taken place on the same day. Biswas, a ginger trader by profession and a resident of Krishnai, was abducted by GNLA militants on January 4 from Nangapa, a few kilometres from Songsak in East Garo Hills District. Though no First Information Report (FIR) was filed by the family of the victim, Police had been on the job to rescue the trader from the clutches of the militants. Police believe the abduction was carried out by GNLA ‘secondincommand’ (East Garo Hills) Pangkam, who reports to Jimmy (Ajan Ch Momin), prime suspect in the Williamnagar blast on January 9. Family sources said that the militants had been demanding INR 500,000 as ransom for the release of Biswas. The family was, however, able to garner only INR 150,000, which the outfit was not willing to accept and had threatened to kill Biswas if their demand was not met soon. Police sources said that Biswas had been shot in the head with a single bullet.
