Angamba said killing and loss of Manipuri students and employees outside the state has been occurring frequently in the last few months. The cases of Moirangthem Sidharth, who was found dead after falling from the second floor of a restaurant in Delhi, mysterious death of Pravish Chanam in Noida, Uttar Pradesh and Taorem Bitoo of Khuyathong, who went missing from Masti Park, Delhi under mysterious circumstances are cause for concern.

Angamba condemned the state government for not bringing a solution to the incidents. He also condemned all political parties for not taking initiatives. The case of Pravish is suspicious and instead of assigning a police officer for investigating the case a ministerial team should be assigned to conduct proper investigation, Angamba said.

He claimed the state government should give pressure to the Uttar Pradesh government to solve the case of Pravish immediately to give a clear result of the case.

Convenor of Peoples Action Committee against the brutal killing Pravish Chanam of Uripok Achom Leikai at UP, Ahongsangbam Pholen said the mysterious killing of Pravish and his body’s cremation as unclaimed body despite filing missing report at Noida police is unacceptable.

The government should take steps to prevent such incident in future. If the state government fails to find a reasonable report within five days from today, intense agitation will start, Pholen warned.
