New Delhi: The Home Ministry has sought a report asking for all the facts in 2009 fake encounter case.
This came after a Manipur policeman confessed that he had killed a former PLA terrorist Sanjit Meitei in a fake encounter.
Probe teams would check the authenticity and decide on the next course of action.
Meanwhile, the pressure grows on government as NHRC has sought a report on the fake encounter case.
In an exclusive interview to CNN-IBN, the head constable, Herojit Singh, made the confessions on killing an unarmed Meitei in 2009.
