In a strategic operation near the Myanmar border, Assam Rifles personnel successfully apprehended a member of Myanmar’s Chinland Defence Force (CDF) at Tuipang village in Mizoram’s Siaha district. The arrest, which took place on Saturday, highlights ongoing efforts to curb cross-border insurgent activities.

Acting on specific intelligence, Assam Rifles set up a mobile vehicle check post at the Tuipang road junction. During the operation, they detained an individual riding a Burmese-origin Kenbo motorcycle. A thorough search revealed a significant cache of ammunition and tactical equipment, including 170 rounds of 12 Gauge Shotgun cartridges, fourteen Baofeng radio sets, several pieces of tactical gear, and fourteen radio set chargers.

The arrested individual, identified as a cadre of the Chinland Defence Force, was allegedly responsible for transporting these supplies across the Indo-Myanmar border. This arrest underscores the clandestine movements and logistical operations by insurgent groups in the region.

Following the arrest, the individual was handed over to Tuipang police, along with the confiscated ammunition and other war-like stores, for further investigation and legal proceedings. The seized items, including the Kenbo motorcycle, are being analyzed to gather more information on insurgent operations and networks operating along the border.

This operation by Assam Rifles is part of a broader strategy to secure the Indo-Myanmar border and prevent the inflow of arms and insurgent resources into Indian territory. The apprehension is expected to provide critical insights into the operational strategies and supply chains of the CDF.
