Niki Sumi, the self-styled military adviser of NSCN-K, is said to be
the brain behind the 4 attack on an Army convoy in Manipur
New Delhi, Jun 17 :
The National Investigation Agency has zeroed in on four masterminds of
the worst attack on the Indian Army on June 4, that was led by key
NSCN(K) operative Niki Sumi, who incidentally is also in charge of the
outfit’s military operations.
The plot was hatched in Myanmar, with intelligence sources saying Niki Sumi had escaped just hours before the retaliation by Indian Army special forces, who attacked his Ponue camp in Myanmar. Sumi is now learnt to be shifting base every 15 days.
In addition, the role of two other key NSCN(K) members, Neymlang and Starson Lamkang, is also being looked into. While Neymlang is said to be a military operational strategist, Lamkang looks after the financial resources of the terrorist group.
While the operation was carried out by the NSCN(K), it also got logistical support from local KYKL chief Oken, top sources said.
The NIA, with help from Central intelligence agencies, is conducting investigations into one of the worst attacks on the Indian Army in recent times.
It is also suspected that Niki Sumi has escaped to a high-security training camp somewhere in north Myanmar, where he is said to be under heavy protection of some Myanmar Army units as well as members of China’s People’s Liberation Army.
