The Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) on December 6 rejected Meghalaya Chief Minister D. D. Lapang’s appeal to ‘surrender’ and his offer for ‘safe passage’, reports Shillong Times. The outfit accused the Government for not being sincere by solving political problems raised by it. "Mr Lapang’s statement was only to frighten us and dampen the patriotic spirit in the history of Hynniew-trep", the HNLC said. In an e-mailed statement issued to a section of the media, HNLC said, "The organisation will not entertain the personal appeal of Mr Lapang for safe passage." On December 5, Lapang had appealed to HNLC leaders ‘general secretary’ Cherishterfield Thangkhiew and ‘commander-in-chief’ Bobby Marwein to come over ground and also offered them ‘safe-passage.’

He surrendered along with his wife and two-year-old daughter. His wife was identified as Syntiew Dkhar hailing from Nonsara village near Maulari Bazar of Sylhet District in Bangladesh. Badonsing had joined the outfit in 2003. Police subsequently took the militant and his family to Jowai for interrogation.

An Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) cadre, Badonsing Lyngdoh Marshillong, who surrendered before the Dawki Police in the evening of December 13, revealed that the outfit still had over 100 cadres and most of them were wandering in Bangladesh to earn for their livelihood, reports Shillong Times. He mentioned that while leaders of the proscribed outfit were leading a luxurious life in Bangladesh, its common cadres were facing a lot of difficulty to make their both ends meet. He said the cadres of the outfit were working as labourers in the Khasi Pnar villages of Bangladesh. Marshillong, who joined the militant group in 2003, is a school drop-out. A resident of Pyndengsohsaw villager under Mawsynram Police Station in East Khasi Hills District, Marshillong crossed over to Bangladesh via Balat and completed his training at Arusumen Camp in the same year. After his training, the leaders gave him no assignment and had to spend his time with no responsibility. Later, he worked as a labourer at betel leaf garden of some of the Khasi-Pnar people residing at Nonsara village in Bangladesh earning BDT 100 per day. In 2006, he married one local Nonsara girl, Syntiew Dkhar. They now have a two-year-old daughter. In 2007, Marshillong had informed the ‘area commander’ of the banned outfit in writing that he was not willing to remain in the group. But he did not get any response. In the early part of December 2009, the group asked him to leave Bangladesh at once or face death. He was forced to leave Bangladesh. He crossed over to India on December 13 and surrendered at Dawki Police Station.

The Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) has called for a 24-hour general shut down during Union Minister of Home Affairs P. Chidambaram's visit to the State on December 19, according to Shillong Times. The HNLC spokesman Sainkupar Nongtraw said that the shutdown will come into effect from 6 pm on December 18 in the entire Khasi-Jaintia Hills. ''The bandh will be organised to show to the Union Home Minister the opposition by people of 'Hynniewtrep Land' against forceful occupation of land by the armed forces, human rights abuse and attempt to forcefully extract uranium from West Khasi Hills,'' Nongtraw said.

Meghalaya Chief Minister D.D. Lapang on December 19 criticised the Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) for creating confusion by resorting to a general shut down even after the Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram cancelled his visit to the State, according to Telegraph. The outfit reportedly called the 24-hour general shut down, beginning 6.30pm on December 18, to protest against the Home Minister’s visit, alleging that India was adopting double standard on human rights issues.

The Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) cadres have been breaking boulders and supplying the stones to the construction market in Bangladesh, where they have most of their hideouts, an unnamed Police official quoting a surrendered HNLC militant said, reports Shillong Times. The HNLC cadre, Badonsing Lyngdoh Marshillong, who surrendered before the Dawki Police in the evening of December 13, revealed that its common members were facing immense hardship to eke out a living in Bangladesh. "Financial crisis has compelled the Khasi outfit to take to ‘business’ in Bangladesh for the survival of its cadres who are still camping in that country," the Police official said. He said one such business that HNLC is engaged is export of stones from a quarry owned by the outfit at Nohksiar, a Khasi village in Bangladesh. "From this quarry, HNLC is supplying stones to many places in Bangladesh," he said.

Shillong Times reports that Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) militants are taking shelter in Khasi villages well inside Bangladesh after committing crime in Meghalaya. "The HNLC militants mingle with the Khasi villagers staying in Bangladesh thereby making it impossible either for Meghalaya police or Bangladesh security forces to track down the militants," a senior Police Official said. The report adds that four HNLC militants who shot dead a coal trader, Raja Khongsit, in the East Khasi Hills border area, had infiltrated from Bangladesh into Pomshutia village in Meghalaya and exfiltrated to Bangladesh after committing the crime

The Meghalaya Government ordered a magisterial inquiry into the death of an inmate of the Jowai District Jail, Pynhunlang Kharbani (33), who was declared ‘brought dead’ at Jowai Civil Hospital on December 26 after he suddenly fell sick in his prison cell. Kharbani was reportedly booked under the Meghalaya Detention and Prevention Act (MPDA). ''A magisterial inquiry into the death of the prisoner is already on to find out the exact cause of death,'' Jaintia Hills District Deputy Commissioner T. Dkhar said. He said a 15-day time was given to the Additional District Magistrate Sainkupar Syiemlieh to investigate into the incident. Meanwhile, the HNLC claimed that Kharbani was a cadre of the outfit.

The Meghalaya Police decided to seek the help of surrendered Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) cadres to track down the militants who are provided shelter by villagers residing in Bangladesh after carrying out criminal activities in the State, according to Shillong Times. "We are developing a strategy of engaging the surrendered militants to tackle the HNLC militants in the border," said Meghalaya Director General of Police (DGP) S.B. Kakati on December 29. There are more than 150 surrendered HNLC militants who had narrated to the police in the past that majority of the HNLC cadres stay with Khasi villagers inside Bangladesh. The militants also assist the Khasi villagers in the betel nut plantations. A major disadvantage for the Meghalaya Police is its inability to build up an effective intelligence network along the border areas of the Khasi hills region where the HNLC has a significant presence. Unable to extort money from Shillong due to constant vigil of the Police, the HNLC militants are carrying out large scale extortion from the coal exporters in the remote borders, Police said. "We need effective co-ordination of the police forces of East Khasi Hills and the Jaintia Hills to tackle militant activities in the borders," said Kakati, adding that more forces will be deployed in the border to tackle insurgency related crimes. "We had deployed some personnel of the Special Operations Team (SOT) in East Khasi Hills border, but we did not have actionable intelligence about the attack on December 23 [killing of a coal trader]," the DGP said. Kakati also admitted that police were aware of the threat to the coal baron from HNLC through intelligence inputs but the slain coal trader's family members had not divulged anything.
