2 Indians shot dead in Myanmar; tension grips border town

Tension gripped the Manipur-Myanmar border town of Moreh after two Indian nationals were reportedly shot dead at Wuksu in Myanmar.

Sources in Moreh told IANS that the bodies are yet to be handed over to the Indian authorities for identification.

However, the security forces are not taking any chances in this sensitive border area. Security measures have been beefed up to avert any untoward incident.

According to sources, the two Indian nationals, Mohammad Kheruddin (28) and Mohammad Jalanuddin (32) from Moreh, had left for Myanmar on May 2 to catch fish in the mountain streams. But they never returned. (Courtesy of Business Standard News)
