Senior advocate, Khaidem Mani said that the state government should give strong pressure to the central government to let the CBI investigate the mysterious deaths of students and youths of North East especially from Manipur in the mainland India to give justice to the victims.

Disposing of victim’s body as unclaimed within a short period of time without intimating the family is considered as illegal and such act of negligence have been creating suspicious on possibilities of conspiracy among the law enforcing body, doctors and persons who were involved in the killing of Pravish, he added.
