Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh said that security along the Myanmar border through which militants who ambushed the Assam Rifles personnel and family members are believed to have slipped in, would be beefed up.

The chief minister who laid wreaths on the bodies of an Assam Rifles Colonel, his wife, son and four other riflemen at Imphal airport, also said the home department and para-military forces had been instructed to bring the militants before the justice at the earliest.
