The 6 missing people were living in a relief camp. The development comes a day after Indian security forces gunned down 10 Kuki-Zo terrorists in Jiribam.
Earlier on Saturday (9th November), a woman belonging to the Meitie community was shot dead in Saiton village in Bishnupur district of Manipur. The murder was suspected to have been committed by Kuki-Zo terrorists.
The incident occurred when the Meitiei woman in her early 20s was working in a paddy field. Shots were reportedly fired from a hill stretch, located 100 metres away. The victim died on the spot.
