New Delhi / Guwahati: The People’s Liberation Army (PLA) has told the Indian Army that a teenager has been found on his side from the actual control line, but has not yet been confirmed whether he is the same young man who went missing from the afternoon district over Arunachal Pradesh at 18 January.
“PLA has confirmed to their colleagues here that they have found a boy, who comes from India’s side,” The Defense Pro based in Tezpur, told by Col Harshvardhan Pandey, told toI on Sunday.
It may take a week to ascertain whether Indian youth is Miran Taron (17), MP BJP East Arunachal Tapir Gao has accused, “kidnapped” by the PLA army on January 18.
PLA will confirm the identity of youth using photos and then start the process of sending it back.
“Only one person lost in the sector along the LAC.
So, the teenager is in all the probabilities of Taron,” said a source.
Indian soldiers previously seeked help from PLA through an established hotline mechanism.
Taron and his friend Johny Yaiying, who belonged to the village of Zido in the district of Loss Upper, hunted in the border area when the incident occurred.
Gao said Taron was kidnapped by PLA from “within the Indian territory in the Lungta Jor area, where China has built a 3-4 km road in India” in 2018.
“Friends (Yaiying) fled from the party and reported to the authorities.
All The Indian government agency was asked to step up to release initially, “he tweeted.
Since then, this problem has triggered a political storm, with the leader of Congress Rahul Gandhi targets Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “silence” in the “kidnapping of China” Taron right in front of the Republican Day celebration.
President of the Pradesh Arunachal Congress Committee and Previously CM Nabam Tuki on Sunday also fired Salvo in the center and the Ministry of Defense (MOD) because it could not come out with a clear statement about Taron.
“He is a boy who is innocent and goes to his own territory at Arunachal Pradesh.
Why is the union government for so long to make the boy be released from China? Why has it been postponed for a long time and there is no official reaction from the Indian government and mod?” Said Tuki.
