Imphal, January 23 2021: The UKLF (United Kuki Liberation Front) has claimed responsibility for killing Thangminlen Guite at Moreh today.

Thangminlen Guite alias T Guite, DC Tactical HQ, KNO/KNA was awarded capital punishment for all his crimes against UKLF, said a statement issued by its joint secretary T James.

"With the report of Intelligent Cell of UKLF Mr.Thangminlen Guite was eliminated on his way to attack UKLF location at Forest Gate Moreh today," said the statement.

It also claimed that Thangminlen Guite of Yangngoubung village was a Government teacher posted at Thingbongphai Govt Aided Primary School, Tengnoupal district while he also held a post in KNA/KNO as Deputy Commissioner, KNO/KNA Moreh.

On July 13, 2018, Thangminlen Guite along with Thenkhothang alias Thahpi, OC of KNA/KNO Moreh had "inhumanly attacked" a local resident of Moreh namely M Onkholet Haokip with sophisticated weapons including bombs.

Again on October 23, 2018 the same persons "attacked" UKLF location at Forest Gate where Thangminlen Guite was severely injured.

Further on July 13, 2019 Thangminlen Guite "brutally murdered" (L) leut John Gangte, Moreh Town commander, UKLF in broad daylight.

Thangminlen Guite had also instigated inter village feuds between Zion Veng and Munnomjang village in Moreh.

He also tried to assassinate KT Misao, vice-chairman, UKLF when he was visiting his family, claimed the outfit while tendering "apologies" to Md Abas and his family for causing injury in today's firing.

In the meantime, the UKLF also questioned where were SoO ground rules when KNA/KNO openly attacked and fired at civilian residents including UKLF locations thrice, and brutally murdering two of UKLF officers in broad daylight in Moreh.

"UKLF maintained and followed SoO ground rules with full spirit even when KNA/KNO repeatedly attacked and murdered our brave hearts in Moreh...," said UKLF asserting that the killing of Thangminlen Guite was pre-emptive.

KNA/KNO roaming "freely with weapons and repeatedly attacked civilian residents".

Their presence in Moreh 30 km away from their Chehlep designated camp is against SoO ground rules, said the UKLF appealing to the authority concerned to take necessary action and contain all the KNA/KNO cadres in their designated camp for peace to prevail in Moreh.
