Arunachal Pradesh MP claims Chinese PLA abducted youth from inside 'Indian territory'

Itanagar: An MP from Arunachal Pradesh has claimed that a 17-year-old youth had been 'abducted' by Chinese soldiers "from inside Indian territory".

The MP said the incident happened on January 18.

Tapir Gao, Member of Parliament from East Arunachal Pradesh, tweeted: "Chinese PLA has abducted Sh Miram Taron, 17, of Zido village yesterday, 18th Jan 2022, from inside Indian territory, Lungta Jor area (China built 3-4 kms road inside India in 2018) under Siyungla area (Bishing village) of Upper Siang dist, Arunachal Pradesh."

"His friend escaped from the PLA and reported to the authorities.
All the agencies of Govt of India are requested to step up for his early release," he said.

Gao tagged Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and the Indian Army in his tweet.

However, denying the abduction of the Arunachal Pradesh youth, China's Foreign Ministry said on Thursday that it was not aware of the incident.
