Guwahati : ULFA Commander in Chief Paresh Barua had a major accident almost three weeks back and he broke his ribs and toe, this has been independently confirmed but the lookeast.in report of his demise is yet to be confirmed. The Intelligence agencies very cleverly released the information through Subir Bhaumik run web site “lookeast.in”, an old hand of North East Insurgency and that has been rolled over and over again by various media outlets and digital media platform as well as social media.Old hands like Anup Chetia confirmed that he had a talk with Paresh Barua after the recovery from the accident and got a miss call from him four days back but had no information about his demise. In the past several such rumours had taken over the media and each time, Paresh Barua had to call up several media house to quell the rumour. These intentional rumour was generally orchestrated by IB to find out whereabouts of ULFA Commander in Chief after they lose human intelligence on him. So far Paresh Barua has not called up and if he does not it in next 48 hours, then it would take a different turn.It may be mentioned that according to an exclusive report in the online news magazine, lookeast.in, Intelligence agencies have picked up ‘inputs’ about Paresh Baruah sustaining severe injuries in a road accident along China-Myanmar border. The report further stated the Intelligence agencies ‘are trying’ to confirm the ‘inputs’. The online report also stated that ULFA-I, C-in-C, Barua is said to have fractured several ribs and a leg in the road accident. But the exact spot of the accident is not known but is said to be around Ruili on the China–Myanmar border. It may further be mentioned that the online media lookeast.in also quoted a top intelligence officer who also confirmed that C-in-C has sustained severe injuries after an accident in the border area of China-Myanmar, but they are yet to ascertain whether the C-in-C is dead or alive.
