Meghalaya Police today arrested two persons, identified as Sengchang Momin and Solly Sangma from South Garo Hills District and traced INR 28 lakh that was deposited by militants using civilians’ bank account in Tura on December 1, reports The Telegraph. A statement issued by Meghalaya Police said, "The arrested persons had confessed that the cash belongs to Baichung who is an 'area commander' of the GNLA (Garo National Liberation Army)." It said that following the demonetisation of INR 500 and INR1,000 notes, militants made desperate attempts to deposit their ill-gotten money in bank accounts of civilians in Garo hills. The Police also issued directions to bank authorities to freeze these bank accounts for further investigation.

The Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) ‘self-styled military chief’ Sohan D Shira has around INR12-13 crore of terror funds in his and his family members' possession and he is trying to force local businessmen and villagers to convert this black money into white money, said Police sources, reports The Sentinel on December 2. The other group, A’chik Songna An’pachakgipa Kotok (ASAK) is also adopting similar ploy, disclosed by a senior Police official overseeing the entire modus operandi of the two armed outfits. "Our estimates of terror money amounting to Rs 12-13 crore is learnt to have been stacked with Sohan D Shira's family members and close aides," stated the official, adding, "the GNLA is forcing the local businessmen and villagers to use the available options to convert the extorted cash into white money"."The Police, the Intelligence Bureau and Income tax department have this information and we have alerted the banks," the official said. Terming the two Garo militant groups of making desperate attempts by coercing the simple businessmen and villagers to come out of their helplessness, the official based at the Shillong Police headquarters stated, "The fortunate thing is that some of these people have come forward to provide information that they cannot go beyond the inevitable of going for depositing the old notes in their respective names." The Police have made it clear that anybody can submit their cash money through the banks, but any intentional act to launder terror funds into black money is liable for prosecution.

The twin arrests of Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) cadres in East Garo Hills District, Police could solve a abduction case as well as seized extortion money, reports The Shillong Times on December 3. The arrest of a teenage militant on December 1, night solved the mystery of the missing Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) school teacher. The 16-year-old boy told Police that he guided the armed GNLA militants to the teacher’s house at Nengsang Adugre village in the District on the night of November 4. The Lower Primary School teacher, Rechard Stranger Sangma, was taken away at gunpoint from his house. Police’s search operation had yielded no result. The teenager is also from Nengsang Adugre and was arrested from the outskirts of Tura, where he had arrived two days ago. GNLA ‘chief’ Sohan D. Shira had given the boy INR 100,000 in old currency notes for exchange and asked him to keep a watch on the outfit’s deserters in Williamnagar and Baghmara who recently surrendered to the Government. Tura Police have recovered a substantial amount of the money. GNLA had maintained silence about the abduction.Meanwhile, another militant arrested from a different locality was found to possess INR 84,000 collected as extortion from civilians in and around the town, reports The Shillong Times on December 3. He was arrested from outside the gate of Don Bosco College in Tura on the same day. The cadre, identified as M. Sangma, was picked up based on intelligence inputs. When Police searched his rented house at Wadanang, they found INR 84,000 which had been extorted from a person in Tura town.

The leadership of the disbanded breakaway faction of Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC-B) on December 5 accused the Meghalaya Government of trying to divide the cadres from the leadership, reports The Assam Tribune. The General Secretary (GS) of the Non-governmental Organization (NGO) of the disbanded outfit, Jakrik Wareng said, “There is confusion among the cadres as there is an attempt to divide the cadres from the leadership. We only came to know about it when some cadres were asked to submit their account numbers to the police station without the knowledge of the leaders.” The leadership of the organisation has called for a meeting at Edenbari near Tura of West Garo Hills District on December 9 to discuss the matter and show a united front.

Two suspected GNLA cadres, identified as Borgen Sangma and Rankhu Momin were arrested for threatening to kill South Garo Hills Superintendent of Police (SP) Anand Mishra, from South Garo Hills District on December 8, reports The Shillong Times.

A senior leader of the Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) identified as Lingdho N. Sangma (25) surrendered at Tura of West Garo Hills District on December 9, reports The Shillong Times. He was a senior cadre of the GNLA’s sixth batch of recruits who completed arms training in 2014, was assigned as a ‘personal security officer’ of GNLA ‘chief’ Sohan D. Shira for three months. He operated under former ‘commander’ Nikam Ch Momin alias Baichung Momin in the Chokpot region of the South Garo Hills District. As SATP reported earlier, Baichung Momin also surrendered on December 9.According to sources, after the surrender of the senior leaders, GNLA might lure minors to join the militant group, reports The Shillong Times on December 12. Regarding this issue, the sources mentioned the incident of the arrest of a minor boy from West Garo Hills District on November 30, where the GNLA ‘chief’ Sohan D. Shira gave money to the minor boy to target surrendered GNLA cadres. Sources also pointed out that the sudden surrender of the senior leaders of GNLA (particularly ‘commander’ Baichung Ch Momin), who were in possession of several lakhs of extortion money, may weaken the cases of extortions. Sources alleged different yardsticks on the part of Police in facilitating the surrender of GNLA commander Baichung whereas three persons who were having links with Baichung were arrested. Legal experts pointed out that Baichung should have been arrested instead of facilitating his surrender as this money trail case may weaken after his surrender.

A top leader of Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA), identified as ‘second in command’, Nikam Ch Momin alias Baichung Momin, surrendered in Chokpot of South Garo Hills District on December 9, reports The Shillong Times. Baichung surrendered with one Rifle, 120 rounds of live ammunition, one magazine, two mobile phones and four SIM cards.According to the sources, apart from the poor health of the leader and the family pressure, the Centre’s demonetization has also played a crucial role in the surrender of the leader. Earlier, Baichung’s attempt to channel old currency notes to the tune of INR 20 lakh was foiled by the Police. Two of his aides were arrested and his two bank accounts in South Garo Hills were also frozen. After the surrender the Superintendent of Police (SP) Anand Mishra said, “His surrender has broken the backbone of GNLA. Only the C-in-C, Sohan D Shira remains.” The leader, who was earlier a senior leader of Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC), joined GNLA in December 2009 and recently entrusted with multiple commands of the GNLA. Explaining about the reason of his surrender the militant leader said that Sohan D Shira brought ruin to the outfit by collecting huge amount of ill-gotten wealth.

The Meghalaya Police instructed all Superintendents of Police (SPs) to coordinate with banks following several attempts by banned militant outfits in Garo Hills to exchange old currency notes with new ones after the demonetisation, reports The Shillong Times on December 14. Meghalaya Police are coordinating with banks in Assam to prevent money laundering by militants after a directive from the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) to all North Eastern states. Post demonetisation, many over ground cadres of the Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) were arrested while trying to exchange old currency notes.When asked about GNLA’s dwindling strength following several arrests and surrenders, the Police said at present, Sohan D. Shira may have around 20-25 cadres with him. However, Police officials pointed out that despite the weakening manpower, GNLA’s firepower is still intact. The GNLA chief had reportedly bought huge caches of weapons since 2010 which are buried in the jungles of the Durama range in Garo Hills. The Police officials said even if Sohan surrenders, he might sell the arms caches.
