The Ao Senden expressed appreciation to the victim’s family and Eastern Nagaland Women Organization Mokokchung (ENWOM) for showing utmost restraint despite the “intolerable and inhuman act”. It also extended appreciation to the District Administration for timely intervention and proceeding of necessary action in containing the situation.
Demanding stringent action against the culprit, the Ao Senden asserted that the culprit “must not be bailed out under any circumstances” so that no similar “misadventure” is repeated and the situation is not provoked beyond control.
