Itanagar, May 1: A construction worker abducted by NSCN-Yung Aung (NSCN-YA) cadres from a work site in Pongchau, Arunachal Pradesh, was killed during an encounter on Sunday between security forces and NSCN-Khaplang-Yung Aung (NSCN-KYA) militants.

The deceased worker has been identified as Giyas Uddin, an employee of PSK Enterprise working at the Government Higher Secondary School in Pongchau.

Sources said Uddin died in the crossfire.

On Friday night, Giyas Uddin and site supervisor Janlung Wangpan were abducted from the Pangchao area in Arunachal Pradesh’s Longding district, which borders Myanmar.

Acting on specific intelligence, a joint operation by the Army and Assam Rifles was launched in Pangchao on Sunday.

During the operation, three NSCN-KYA cadres were killed. Uddin sustained bullet injuries in the crossfire and later died.

The slain NSCN-KYA cadres were reportedly Myanmarese nationals. Additionally, two other cadres—one from Arunachal Pradesh and another from Nagaland—were apprehended during the operation.
