In a significant legal decision, the Delhi High Court has overturned the arrest of Thockchom Shyamjai Singh, identified by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) as the self-proclaimed army chief of the banned United National Liberation Front (UNLF). Singh, along with Laimayum Anand Sharma and Salam Ibomcha Meitei, were apprehended in March 2024. They faced accusations of participating in a transnational conspiracy, orchestrated by foreign-based leaders of terror groups, aimed at exploiting the ethnic unrest in Manipur to carry out terrorist attacks.
