Tura, July 26: In a major development in the Tura unrest case, one of the key instigators of the mob violence, Salseng R. Marak, who allegedly urged protestors to burn down the ACHIK campsite and target police and the delegation holding talks with the Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma, has been arrested.

Police had been searching for him since Monday night, following the 3-hour long violence outside the CM’s mini-secretariat in Tura when the Chief Minister was holding a peaceful meeting with leaders of ACHIK and GSMC and other civil bodies on their demands of winter capital in Tura and retrospective implementation of roster system or a backlog policy.

Acting on a specific input, a special team of police made the arrest from Damalgre, where Marak was hiding. Seeing the police, he tried to escape, but was caught by the swift action of the police.

Marak had allegedly delivered an inflammatory speech, playing a pivotal role in inciting the mob to commit acts of violence.

The arrest of Marak sends a strong message that no one is above the law and that individuals who incite violence will be held accountable for their actions.

The total arrets in connection with the Tura violence has gone up to 28 people, so far.
