Police arrested a GNLA cadre identified as Julius N Marak from the Goreng coal mine in Shallang in West Khasi Hills District. A crude bomb was recovered from his possession. Police informed that a group of nine GNLA cadres led by Savio Marak ‘area commander’ of Khasi Hills entered the coal-rich area of Shallang with an aim to abduct some coal traders of the area. However, the GNLA cadres were spotted by the Police who were present in the area. The Police team, however, did not fire on the militants as several coal labourers were working in the coal mine. Taking advantage, the militants fled from the scene even as SFs managed to arrest Julius who was hiding in a coal quarry. He was taken to Shallang Police Station where he confessed that he was a GNLA cadre and was involved in many acts of crime.

The arrest of four members of Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) by Assam Police on March 9 has revealed that the militant outfit was trying to make inroads into neighbouring Ri Bhoi District of Meghalaya, reports The Telegraph. One of the arrestees, Mukher G. Areng, was reportedly providing shelter and other support to GNLA militants in Ri Bhoi District. “During the interrogation of the four rebels, it has come to light that the GNLA is trying to make inroads into Ri Bhoi district, where they were less active so far,” Apurba Jibon Baruah, senior superintendent of Police (Guwahati), said. Jibon Baruah further said investigations have revealed that the GNLA and the Paresh Barua group of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) had reached an understanding and both were helping each other. “According to the understanding, Ulfa will not harm the Garo people living on the Assam side, while a group of 30-40 Ulfa cadres are taking shelter in GNLA camps in the West Garo Hills district,” he said.

State Home Minister HDR Lyngdoh categorically stated that the State Government would not invite any militant groups for talks if they do not abjure the path of violence and lay down arms. Lyngdoh said, “The government is not adverse to talks and it will initiate dialogue with the militant outfits if they shun violence and lay down arms”. Lyngdoh about the violent activities perpetrated by the GNLA since January 2010 said that during this period, the GNLA killed 25 civilians and injured three besides killing 10 police personnel and injuring eight others. Home Minister on the action taken by Security Forces said, “During the period, police arrested 156 militants. 31 militants were killed and 65 others surrendered. 93 sophisticated arms were also recovered.”He claimed that the Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC), a Khasi militant group has been crushed and the Government is determined to ensure that it does not raise its ugly head again. He said the increasing militant activities and a low Police-Population-Area ratio posed a ‘big challenge’. “We recognise that there is a need to improve our police-population ratio and to stengthen the police network so that the problem (militancy) can be nipped at the initial stage,” Lyngdoh said. Meghalaya has 13,394 police personnel, which works out to 110 Police personals for a lakh population and one police covering an area of 6.83 square kilometer, Lyngdoh said. Lyngdoh said the Central Government accorded sanction of INR 50 crore from the 13th Finance Commission for the setting up of a Meghalaya Police Academy, aimed at developing it as a centre of excellence for police training.
