The two were identified as self-styled Captain Asang Tangkhul and Lieutenant Huketu Sema.

After the incident, over 200 NSCN-IM men armed with sophisticated weapons went to the spot, cordoned off the area and launched a manhunt to track the killers, the sources said.

A few days ago NSCN-IM had killed an ULFA cadre and kidnapped three others and later handed them to the police. The NSCN(IM) faction suspected Wednesday's incident to be a retaliation of that.
