Two Manipur students who had gone missing in July presumed killed after photos surface
One of the pictures showed the two students – 20-year-old Phijam Hemjit and 17-year-old Hijam Linthoingambi – sitting on the grassy compound while two armed men can be seen behind them. In another picture, circulating on social media, the bodies of the two students can be seen.
After the photos surfaced, the Chief Minister’s Secretariat issued a statement saying that the case had already been handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI)
“It has come to the notice of the state government that the photos of two students… who have been missing since July 2023 have surfaced on social media. It may be noted that this case has already been handed over to the CBI as per the wishes of the people of the state,” the Manipur government said in a statement today.
