Imphal, June 10: The Union Home Ministry (MHA) constituted three-member Commission of Inquiry to probe the recent series of ethnic violence in Manipur arrived in the state on Friday.

The MHA, which constituted the Commission of Inquiry on June 4, has asked the probe panel to submit its report to the Central government as soon as possible but not later than six months from the date of its first sitting.

The judicial commission under the chairmanship of the Gauhati High Court’s former Chief Justice Ajai Lamba would soon start their inquiry into the ethnic strife, which broke out on May 3.

The other members of the commission are retired IAS officer Himanshu Shekhar Das and retired IPS officer Prabhakar Aloka.

The Commission would probe the causes and spread of the violence and riots targeting members of different communities, which took place in Manipur on May 3 and thereafter, the sequence of events leading to, and all the facts relating to such violence, whether there were any lapses or dereliction of duty in this regard on the part of any of the responsible authorities and individuals, the adequacy of the administrative measures taken to prevent, and to deal with the violence and riots.

The ethnic-riots have claimed 105 lives and injures to over 320 people in Manipur.
