Earlier, an MMA player from Bajali district in Assam was reportedly executed by the outlawed ULFA-I for allegedly attempting to flee the outfitโs camp in Myanmar.
Abhinash Kalita joined the ULFA-I in March 2022 but allegedly attempted to escape from the camp earlier in September this year along with another cadre namely Deep Axom alias Tanmoy Bora.
Reacting to the โexecutionโ of Anhinash Kalita, Assam DGP GP Singh urged youths of the state not to waste their lives for a โdespoticโ organization like ULFA-I.
โOnce again, same story. They wonโt change. Young friends from Assam, donโt waste your life for an autocratic organisation. Your life has no value there. Please, please, please,โ DGP Singh said.
