The dead body of the van driver who was found inside his van on August 18 was taken back to his native place at Singjamei Okram Leikai by a procession of vehicles of the Indo-Burma Road Van Association and other vehicle associations.

Fellow van drivers and members of the Indo Burma Road Association offered floral tributes to the body of the deceased at the Moreh parking at Heicham Yaicham Pat.

The dead body was consigned to flames according to religious rituals this afternoon.

Meanwhile, the JAC called state-wide indefinite bandh continued today, though it failed to make much impact on the day to day life in the state.
