ULFA claims 2 leaders held in Bangla

By The Assam Tribune

SHILLONG, Dec 18 � The banned ULFA today claimed that two of its leaders were picked up by Indian intelligence agencies in Bangladesh, reports PTI.

In an e-mail to the media signed by ULFA publicity secretary Arunudoy Dohotia, the outfit said �captain� Antu Chaudang and �second lieutenant� Pradeep Chetia were picked up on December 13 and their whereabouts were not known since then.

The e-mail, signed by ULFA publicity secretary Arunudoy Dohotia, however, denied reports that Saudang�s wife was also detained by the security agencies in the neighbouring country.

Saudang is the third top leader to be on the run after �c-in-c� Paresh Barua and another commander of the armed wing Jibon Moran.

A BSF official said Bangladesh security agencies had raided an ULFA hideout in the Jinaighati area of Sherpur district on December 16 and seized a huge cache of weapons, including 10 AK 47 rifles.
