Authorities recovered the bodies of six Naga civilians allegedly abducted on May 13 and transported them to the morgue at Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences in Manipur.
The remains were brought to JNIMS for identification and post-mortem procedures as investigators continued examining circumstances surrounding the abductions. Families and community leaders in Manipur’s Naga areas have demanded accountability since the victims disappeared.
Manipur has faced prolonged ethnic and security tensions that complicate law enforcement responses to violent crimes. Recovery of the bodies marks a grim turn in a case that has drawn regional attention and calls for impartial investigation.
Medical examiners at JNIMS will document injuries and other forensic details that may guide criminal charges. Police and security agencies face pressure to trace perpetrators and explain how the abductions occurred amid existing deployment across the state.
Community organisations have urged authorities to protect witnesses and prevent further violence while the inquiry proceeds. The May 13 date has become a reference point for protests seeking justice for the six deceased villagers.
United Naga Council representatives accompanied some bereaved families to the morgue as tensions ran high in districts affected by ongoing security deployments. Autopsy findings are expected to guide whether charges include murder, kidnapping, or additional offences under Indian penal statutes.
