ULFA killing innocents at ISI’s behest: Army
April 20 , 2007 (FIDSNS)
At a press conference, the GOC 4 Corps, Lt Gen RK Chhabra, said “By spilling the blood of innocent civilians, the so-called freedom fighters have completed their transition to a pure terrorist organization.The ULFA has suffered a serious setback with the neutralization of a large number of important commanders and busting of their camps in Assam and Arunachal Pradesh.”
The GOC also exposed the ongoing strikes and fasts by the wives of the missing ULFA leaders and the PCPIA as a ploy on the outfit’s part to divert public attention from the “main cause and malaise of violence and extortion” and get people’s sympathy. “However, the people have seen through the evil designs of the ULFA, and these gimmicks indulged in by the outfit are not yielding any results,” he asserted, adding that even the outfit’s mouthpiece Freedom had bemoaned the “inadequate media publicity” about the strikes.
Praising Myanmar he said “The Myanmar Army has been extending its full cooperation to us in our drive against the ultras. The Arunachal-Myanmar border being mountainous and densely-forested, it is an arduous task to put a total stop to cross-border movement.”
ISI, the intelligence agency of Pakistan which is the worlds terrorist training factory, is behind the bloodshed. The GOC said “The ISI is calling the shots and telling the ULFA what it should be doing.”
On the growing activities of jehadi elements in the State, Chhabra said that they were a potent threat for the future even though at the moment they were like “backroom boys.” “We are intensifying operations in char and chapori (riverine) areas, the possible hideouts of jehadis,” he added.
Chhabra said that the jehadi elements were basically involved in things like gunrunning, fake currency rackets, drugs pedalling and other anti-national activities.
