Dimapur, June 18 (MExN): Reacting to a press release issued by CAKYO on the obstruction of electoral photo identity card at polling station 11 and 12 on June 13 at Industrial Village Razuphe, Dimapur, Deputy Commissioner, Maongwati Aier today issued a statement clarifying the same. According to the DC, the mob which had come from outside Industrial Village Razuphe were stationed ‘inside’ TL Angami’s house while another group from six colonies were stationed ‘outside’ TL Angami’s house on June 13, inspite of section 144 Cr.PC clamped in the area.
The DC stated that the district administration and police adopted persuasive measure to disperse both groups, and asked the mob gathered inside TL Angami’s house to leave the location in order to avoid confrontation with the other group, to which they complied. Further, the district administration directed the mob outside TL Angami’s house to leave the location. However, a section of the unruly mob refused to disperse and the district administration and police had to resort to lathi charge and burst tear gas. The crowd finally dispersed and sufficient security force was then deployed in and around TL Angami’s house to prevent further clashes.
The DC also clarified on the Dikoi village issue stating that, as per the court’s judgment order (a copy of which attached here) on October 13, 2008, the disputed land between Army fencing and Aoyimkum village was handed over to Dikoi village for peaceful co-existence between the two villages.
