Two barge into Imphal East home, shoot man dead, injure wife: Manipur policeA 52-year-old man named Ngangkham Thambou was shot dead and his 53-year-old wife, Ngangkham Ongbi Keinatombi, was critically injured during a break-in at their home in Manipur’s Imphal East district. The attack occurred around 2:30 am when unknown assailants entered the residence, confronted the couple, and used firearms and a sharp-edged weapon. The victims were found in the room of Thambou’s son, with Thambou shot at point-blank range and Keinatombi attacked on the neck. The suspects fled the scene, leaving behind an empty 9 mm bullet casing. The police have registered a case under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Arms Act, while a local Joint Action Committee (JAC) claims the incident may be premeditated, citing prior sabotage of the area’s electricity transformer. The JAC has demanded that the perpetrators be booked by July 22, otherwise they will not release the body.
