Zunheboto, March 3 (MExN): Expressing shock over the “recent gang rape and flesh trade” committed on a mentally challenged woman at Zunheboto town by “some anti-social elements,” GPRN/NSCN, Regional Administrative Officer (RAO), Sumi Region, Huveto Yepthomi has stated “raping and flesh trading is a sinful act no doubt, but executing it on a person that cannot speak for herself is even more jolting for a human mind to comprehend.”
A press statement issued by Ministry of Information & Publicity, GPRN/NSCN expressed that the “satanic act of these people should not be regarded or mulled over as something that can easily be forgotten or forgiven.” It asserted that the GPRN/NSCN working under the banner of Nagaland for Christ “considers this act as one of the most heinous crimes that humans can ever commit and condemns the same.” And this incident, it declared, will be looked upon, and befitting punishment will be meted out to the people responsible.
It advised the state law enforcing agencies taking up the case to pass stringent punishment to the culprits. No leniency in any form should be shown or acted upon, it added. If such actions are found, the GPRN/NSCN cautioned it will take its own course of action. It further cautioned any individuals, family or organisation against bailing out the perpetrators. “GPRN/NSCN will not tolerate such acts, and if found, those concerned people will also be labelled as anti-social elements and be held responsible of the incident, and punished according to the National yezahbo,” it affirmed.
