The Central Reserve Police Force's (CRPF) timely intervention during a "terror attack" in Manipur's Jiribam district prevented the loss of several lives, Chief Minister N Biren Singh told NDTV on Thursday.
Mr Singh said "10 Kuki terrorists" tried to enter a relief camp in Jiribam's Borobekra where 115 internally displaced people were living, but the CRPF foiled their plan. All the 10 were shot dead in a gunfight with the central forces on November 11 in Borobekra, a village on the interstate border with Assam. One CRPF soldier was injured.
