Two top National Democratic Front of Bodoland militants, arrested along with three other cadres and a sympathizer in Meghalaya, have admitted their involvement in a number of killings and blasts in Assam, besides links with smaller militant groups. Police said that Lachit Boro confessed to have killed 26 people, including those in the serial strikes that the outfit carried out in western Assam districts, mainly in Sonitpur, killing more than 20 people in November last year, after a cadre was gunned down by security forces. Boro, the NDFB 'commander of the eastern region', his deputy 'major' Mathuram Brahma were arrested near Byrnihat, about 90 kilometers from Shillong.
