Abducted CCI manager dies

Sushanta Talukdar

Guwahati: The abducted manager (Mines) of the public sector Cement Corporation of India (CCI) K.N. Jha died on Sunday night a couple of hours after he was kidnapped along with 10 others from the residential colony of a lime stone quarry at Dilai in central Assam’s Karbi Anglong district. Police said they were kidnapped by suspected militants of the Karbi Longri National Liberation Front.

About 20 militants, in battle fatigues, swooped down on the CCI quarry site around 7.45 p.m. and abducted nine persons including Mr. Jha at gunpoint. Later they took hostage a driver and the handyman of a dumper belonging to a private firm. Though the militants released eight persons, the driver and the handyman were not traceable.

SP Anurag Tangkha told The Hindu that Mr. Jha was presumed to have died after heart attack. He was exhausted as the militants made him walk about five km on a hilly road on a rainy night.
