Kohima, January 21 (MExN): The Nagabazar Panchayat has outrightly condemned the killing of Helal Uddin inside his shop at Naga Bazaar by unknown gunmen on January 20 around 6:30 pm. The Panchayat in a condemnation note stated that whoever the perpetrator(s) is and whatever the reason behind the killing, “nobody has the right to take the life of a human in anyway at its own volition.” It reminded the killer(s) that by killing the victim, they have made a family handicapped. “You have eliminated the bread winner of the family. You have made the wife a widow. You have made three minor children fatherless. You have brought anguish to the minds of all peace loving people.”
Being a peace loving colony, the Panchayat said it does not want any anti social elements to disturb the peaceful atmosphere of the colony. Henceforth, the Panchayat asked all denizens of Nagabazar to be vigilant, while warning all outsiders/ residents not to create any untoward act within the colony’s jurisdiction.
The Panchayat further conveyed deepest sympathy to the bereaved family and also requested the law enforcing agencies to arrest and book the culprits and penalize them according to the law at the earliest.
