The outlawed United Liberation Front of Asom (Ulfa) has set up bases in China and other foreign countries with the help of money extorted in the state, two senior Ulfa leaders have told police interrogators.

This is the first time the Ulfa, which is fighting to secede the oil-rich Assam from India, has accepted setting up bases in China. Ulfa “foreign secretary” Sasha Choudhury and “finance secretary” Chitraban Hazarika, now in police remand since November 6, told interrogations that apart from Bangladesh they have bases in China and other foreign countries.
