NIA has filed charge sheet in five cases this month against 26 NDFB(S) militants accused in the killing of tribal villagers and members of the minority community in three Assam districts last year.
The agency has filed three chargesheets against 18 militants of the outlawed outfit accused of killing 41 tribal villagers in Sonitpur and Kokrajhar districts in December last, a senior NIA official here said.
A supplementary charge sheet was filed against six militants along with two others in a separate case this month, in addition to the one filed against two militants in October last year for their alleged involvement in the killing of 39 members of the minority community in Baksa district in May last year, the official said.
The NIA had filed a charge sheet at Special NIA Court, Guwahati yesterday against four NDFB(S) militants in the case where they have been accused of killing six persons in Hatijuli and Shantipur villages under Dhekiajuli police station in Sonitpur district, he said.
The charge sheet was filed against the outfit's 'assistant organising secretary' Sanju Bordoloi alias Sibigiri, who was arrested in Bangalore early this year, 'commanding officer' of the outfit's third battalion Ajoy Basumatary, 'deputy commanding officer' Nitul Daimary and Bishnu Narzary.
The NIA would continue with further investigation into the case, he added.
