Sagaing Region authorities have filed charges against an officer and five other members of the People’s Liberation Army of Manipur (PLA), a rebel group fighting the Indian government from bases along the Myanmar-India border, under the Unlawful Association Act and the Immigration Act.
Five Meitei rebels were arrested at Chindwin River Bridge in Monywa, Sagaing Region in northwestern Myanmar in August last year, and their interrogation led to the arrest of a PLA captain who had immigrated to Sagaing.
