The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday filed two separate chargesheets against five accused in connection with the case of two missing students in Manipur, who were feared killed during the ethnic violence in the northeastern state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On September 25, photos showing their bodies surfaced on various social media platforms, leading to protests, mainly by students. However, the Central Bureau of Investigation is yet to find the bodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The investigation agency filed the chargesheets in the interconnected cases before a designated special court in Assam’s Kamrup, giving a sequence of events before they went missing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The nodal agency mentioned that the boy went to the tuition class of the girl on July 6, and after picking her up on his motorcycle, proceeded towards the Bishnupur side. From there, they rode towards Old Cachar Road, it added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In its statement, the Central Bureau of Investigation noted that the teens were intercepted by a group of people and held captive by the five accused named in the chargesheet. The statement claimed that the accused forcibly put them in a vehicle and took them to an undisclosed location, where they were suspectedly killed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among the five accused, Paolunmang was arrested from Pune, and Paominlun Haokip, Smalsawm Haokip and Lhingneichong Baitekuki were arrested from Churachandpur district. Nohgin Baitekuki is still on the run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reports stated that the parents of the missing teenagers had filed first information reports (FIRs) with the Imphal police and the Lamphel police on July 8 and July 19, respectively. The girl’s parents had claimed the boy may have kidnapped his daughter to marry her without consent, while the boy’s parents alleged his son may have been abducted by miscreants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The investigation agency affirmed that they filed chargesheets in both cases against the five accused and further investigation is underway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
