According to a report by Sandesh, Manipur, a small Indian state, has become the center of discussion in Interpol's Most Wanted list. Surprisingly, 10 notorious criminals from this state, which has a population of only 28 lakh, have featured in Interpol's top list. These criminals, included in the CBI's Red Corner Notice, have been charged with serious allegations such as treason and waging war against the Government of India.
In this list, Mepak Khuraizem from Manipur's Thoubal city is at the top. He is accused of terrorist activities and possessing explosive materials. He fled the country following action by security agencies. He has previously been sentenced for terrorist activities and possession of weapons. Second in this list is 44-year-old Premanand Singh Nongmaithem. Premanand is accused of being a member of a terrorist organization and involvement in serious crimes such as murder. It has also been reported that he was sentenced for attempting to wage war against the Government of India.
All these criminals are under constant surveillance by security agencies. As all the individuals included in Interpol's list have a serious criminal history, the search for them has been intensified by the security apparatus. This incident has also raised several questions regarding the country's security system, as such a large number of terrorists and criminals from a small state have been declared wanted internationally.
