Two arrested in Birbhum triple murder case
Within a day of the recovery of bodies of a housewife and her two kids, Birbhum police have arrested two persons today, including the main accused who is her paramour.
In a significant crackdown on insurgency, the Manipur Police apprehended eight members of the banned United Liberation Front of Manipur (Pambei) and seized a large cache of weapons in Thoubal district.
The arrests, which took place on Monday, stemmed from reports that the group was threatening locals and obstructing land demarcation processes in the district.
