Voice clip of former Cop Thounaojam Brinda where she spoke about Arambai Tenggol’s involvement and role in ongoing Manipur violence and her remarks against the Chief Minister of Manipur has gone viral on social media.
Reacting strongly to the audio record, cadres of Arambai Tenggol and Meitei Leepun along with Meira Paibis stormed Th. Brinda’s residence. Intense altercation ensued between the former police personnel and the mob. Brinda, who was left with no other choice, was later forced to clarify her words in the voice clip as wrong and misinformed. While giving her clarification, Brinda said that her statement in the audio record would be proven wrong after the findings of investigating agencies come out.
She said Arambai Tenggol were already stationed in Churachandpur from May 2 and were prepared for arsoning. She also said that the Arambai Tenggol were involved in parading of two Kuki-Zo women naked.
Making serious allegations against the Chief Minister and RS MP Leishemba Sanajaoba, Brinda said the Arambai Tenggol and Meitei Leepun were formed under their patronage.
Brinda said “Since the relationship between the chief minister and other BJP MLAs in the State is not sound. If he is removed from the post of the chief minister as per law and protocol, if he quits as the chief minister, the option for him is leave the BJP or to try to be a member of parliament or become member of opposition party.”
Brinda alleged that Biren’s position is not secured if he quits BJP. He is trying to built a Meitei fanaticism and formed a regional party along with Meitei fanatics to built his vote bank in the same manner like the caste politics in UP and other parts of India, she added.
Arambai Tengol in its Facebook page stated that they were already aware of the voice clip before, but remained silent, thinking that enemies (Kukis) might take advantage if they made fussing about it. “She must provide proof of her statement failing which, she should tender apology,” Arambai Tenggol had warned her.
