Los cuerpos de dos niños fallecidos en un ataque con proyectiles en Manipur esperan justicia

Tomthin, de cinco años, y Yaisana, de cinco meses, murieron en un ataque con proyectiles en el pueblo de Tronglaobi, distrito de Bishnupur, Manipur, la noche del 6 al 7 de abril. Sus cuerpos han permanecido en una morgue de Imphal durante dos semanas, ya que la familia se niega a reclamarlos hasta que se haga justicia. Las protestas nocturnas en Imphal han reavivado las tensiones en el estado.

Tomthin, de cinco años, y su hermana de cinco meses, Yaisana, dormían junto a su madre, Binita, cuando un proyectil propulsado por cohete explotó en su habitación alrededor de la 1 de la madrugada del 6 al 7 de abril. Binita sufrió heridas por esquirlas y fue hospitalizada. El ataque ocurrió en la casa de sus abuelos en el pueblo de Tronglaobi Awang Leikai, Bishnupur, una zona de colinas de mayoría Meitei cerca de las colinas de Churachandpur.

La familia se ha negado a reclamar los cuerpos hasta que se haga justicia. El abuelo paterno, Oinam Babuton, de 70 años, declaró: “Nos equivocamos mucho al confiar en las fuerzas de seguridad”. El padre, Oinam Mangalsana, un soldado de la BSF destinado en Kishanganj, Bihar, viajó de urgencia a casa y permanece junto a Binita, quien es enfermera en un hospital privado de Guwahati.

El gobierno de Manipur transfirió la investigación a la NIA. El ministro del Interior, Govindas Konthoujam, declaró que cinco presuntos miembros del United Kuki National Army han sido arrestados y que la policía recuperó el lanzador. Elementos locales también están bajo investigación.

El ministro principal Yumnam Khemchand Singh, quien asumió el cargo el 4 de febrero, prometió puestos de trabajo en el gobierno estatal de Manipur para Binita y Mangalsana. Las protestas nocturnas en Imphal están llevando al estado al límite antes del tercer aniversario del conflicto étnico.
