A cadre of the ‘finance wing’ of the Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC), identified as Wanpalei Ryngkhlem alias Palei, was arrested by the Meghalaya Police from Polo area in capital Shillong on November 25, according to Shillong Times. Police said the outfit is conducting an extortion drive in various parts of Shillong. The modus operandi, according to police, is that HNLC ‘authorises’ certain people to collect money and then send it to its leaders who are camping in Bangladesh. The coal belt regions in Jaintia Hills and West Khasi Hills are the other areas where the HNLC has launched extortion drive to fill its coffers. Police sources said the HNLC had struck deals with the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN) and National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) for such a drive. The report added that top HNLC leaders holed up in Bangladesh are reportedly facing severe crisis of cash and cadres, forcing them to join hands with the NSCN and NDFB and rope in certain individuals who could help the Khasi outfit in extorting money from businessmen, coal traders and others in the State.
