not really. stupid move to accept the money and trying to kill others.
fuck him.
Rickshaw-puller Mohammad Kora, the sole casualty in the blast at the Sangai Tourism Festival in Imphal, had been paid to transport the bomb which went off unexpectedly, Imphal police said.
Lying amid the rubble created by the improvised explosive device, Kora, 50, confessed that he had been approached by members of the outfit KCP-MC, police said.
They added he was not a militant; only in need of money.
“He hailed from Thoubal, the district where a KCP-MC member had been shot in an encounter on Monday, but we have ascertained that he himself had no militant links. He had three wives to support.
He was originally from Bishnupur district but was living between Thoubal district and Hatta in Imphal,” DIG (Imphal East), Clay Khongsai, said.
“The plan was that Kora would plant the sack and leave.
He was promised a hefty reward, we think anything between Rs 10,000 and Rs 20,000. But the bomb went off before Kora could plant it,” said Khongsai.
Kora’s family, meanwhile, refused to accept his body from RIMS Hospital today.
The family has told officials that they would not accept the body until they receive compensation.
