The Manipur Police have registered a criminal case against Meitei Leepun chief Pramot Singh for allegedly promoting enmity between groups and criminal conspiracy, among other charges.
A government source confirmed that the FIR was registered against Mr. Singh on July 8 at the Kangpokpi police station following a complaint by the Kuki Students Organisation (KSO), Sadar Hills, Kangpokpi. The district to north of Imphal is dominated by the Kukis.
The Meitei organisation, along with another group, the Arambai Tenggol, has been accused by the Kuki groups of instigating violence in Manipur. Though the group has been around for the past few years, it gained mass appeal in the past couple of years.
