“Instead of curfew relaxation from 5 am to 6 pm in the twin Imphal districts, it has now been shortened to 5 am to 10.30 am,” an official said.
On August 4, the state police said a joint security force conducted an operation in the Koutruk hill range and destroyed as many as seven illegal bunkers.
Three persons including a father-son duo were killed by militants in Bishnupur district late night on Friday. The three were gunned down while they were sleeping and later slashed with swords at Kwakta, police said.
“The three used to stay in a relief camp but had returned to their residences at Kwakta on Friday after the situation had improved,” police added.
