KLO activists lodged in the Jalpaiguri jail
The SP Jalpaiguri, Mr Manoj Varma, today said that police have secured information about the upcoming activities of the KLO by interrogating two KLO activists lodged in the Jalpaiguri jail.
Several KLO activists were apprehended after the ‘Operation Flush Out’ in Bhutan in the year, 2003, and police administration breathed a sigh of relief with the outfit buckling. But now police claim it has learnt that the KLO chief Jiban Singha, believed to be sheltered in Bangladesh, has started reorganising the group.
According to the Jalpaiguri SP, the KLO has already completed training its ninth and tenth batches in Bangladesh and is planning to launch an anti-India offensive in the six districts of north Bengal.
“The two interrogated KLO activists have told us that Jiban Singha is some where around Chittagong in Bangladesh. He has organised a camp to train the fresh KLO recruits. They also divulged that the ninth and tenth batches have already acquired arms training,” added the SP. According to him, the KLO leader's wife Bharati Roy is also with the team and the new recruits are mostly from north Bengal, each group containing 25 members. “We are certain that the KLO is being backed by some source, which the administration is trying to find along with the outfit's intentions,” he added.
Police are yet to learn about the identities of the new recruits. “We are yet to learn the names and the addresses of the recruits but leaving nothing to chance, we have increased vigilance along the Assam, Bhutan and Bangladesh borders,” the SP said.
