As tensions soared in Manipur following the recovery of the bodies of all six missing persons, protesters targeted the houses of ministers and MLAs, ransacking their residences and setting some of them on fire. They also tried to storm the Chief Minister N Biren Singh's house as security forces responded by firing tear gas to disperse the crowd in various parts of Imphal.
Protesters ransacked the homes of three ministers and six MLAs, including the residence of Chief Minister N Biren Singh's son-in-law, setting their properties ablaze. With violence erupting, particularly in Jiribam, the government imposed prohibitory orders in five districts indefinitely and suspended internet services in parts of the state.
