‘Intense parleys among interned ULFA top brass’

Not pressing for their police custody amply hinted that the government wanted Choudhury and Hazarika to be in jail to meet their comrades,ULFA ‘vice chairman’ Pradeep Gogoi and ‘publicity secretary’ Mithinga Daimary already interned there,Mahajan said.

On reported intense discussions among the top ULFA leaders inside the jail for the past two days,Mahajan said,”This is a positive move that the four ULFA leaders could share their views on the peace parleys.”

“I consider this as a good beginning and a strategy well planned by the government to allow them to talk inside the jail,” the lawyer said.

The four are being kept in a common cell so that they can talk about the peace process in the larger interest of the state,jail sources said.

There are also reports that ULFA ideologue and ‘advisor’ Bhimkanta ‘mama’ Buragohain,captured during the 2003 Bhutan operations,will be shifted to Guwahati from Tezpur jail for forwarding the peace process.

The government could also speed up the interrogation of arrested ULFA ‘chairman’ Arabinda Rajkhowa and ‘deputy commander-in-chief’ Raju Baruah to send them to the Guwahati jail for participating in the discussions with their comrades there,official sources said.
