CNTC condemns life bid on member

DIMAPUR, MAY 11 (MExN): The Central Nagaland Tribes Council (CNTC) today condemned what it said was an assassination bid made on one of its members, Benri Mozhui, Executive Officer of Nagaland State Agriculture Marketing Board. A press note from the CNTC informed that the shooting incident occurred on the night of May 8 at his residence in Duncan Basti, where two miscreants were involved. The CNTC demanded that befitting action be taken on those perpetrators. “At the same time the CNTC also warned sternly of those non-locals conniving with local people indulging in such behavior and which will result in dire consequences,” it said.  

It further asked “all citizens, both overground and underground to stop patronizing anti-socials which is detrimental for a peaceful society.” The CNTC asked the authorities to investigate into the incident promptly and book those involved at the earliest. It meanwhile conveyed sympathy to the injured and prayed for a speedy recovery. The Dimapur District GBs Association (DDGBA), in a separate press not, also condemned the incident and urged the Dimapur Police to apprehend the culprits at the earliest.
