A second Manipur Police commando has died amid renewed violence in Moreh, a small but significant trading town located a few hundred metres from the Myanmar border. Two other commandos, both critically injured, have been airlifted to state capital Imphal for treatment.
The commando who died late Wednesday was Takhellambam Saileshwore, sources told news agency PTI, while the first was named by Manipur Police as 32-year-old Wangkhem Somorjit Meetei.
