Meanwhile, several organisations have expressed support to the movement demanding implementation of the ILPS in the State.

In a press release, the Imphal East United Clubs`™ Organisation expressed grievances on the death of Sapam Robinhood in police action on July 8.

It said the failure of the leaders of the State to understand the pulse of the public indicates that they are not fit to be representatives of the people.

The association further demanded a judicial enquiry in the death of Sapam Robinhood and to punish the guilty police personnel.

It has further denounced the State police for using brute force against protestors of the ILPS movement.

A sit in protest was staged at Khewa Bazar, Tinseed Road demanding punishment of the personnel involved in the death of Robinhood and implementation of the ILPS or a similar law in the State at the earliest, informed a press release of the Top Awang Leikai Apunba Nupisingee Lamjing Lup.

It continued that after the sit inprotest, when the women folk tried to take out a protest rally, Yairipok police came and a brief confrontation took place.

Meanwhile, the Sangaiprou Mamang Leikai Women Welfare Association has claimed in a press release that the present government in employing delaying tactics and trying to fool the public on the issue.

It has further suggested whether it would not be feasible to coerce the Centre to approve implementation of the ILPS in the State first.

The Manipur Pastoral Development Fellowship has also expressed condolence on the death of Sapam RObinhood.

A statement of the organisation said, the death of a student in school uniform in police action is unfortunate.
