DIMAPUR, OCT 31 (MExN): The NSCN (K) today has refuted its rival report of disclosing the killing of only one of its cadre instead of three cadres killed during the three days gun battle at Zunheboto. A press communiqué received here from MIP NSCN (K) stated that it had killed three of its rival group’s one each from Tangkhul, Sumi and Zeliang in view of the public and injured many. The NSCN (K) also stated that around 260-270 of its rival group gathered together and attacked their position at Zunheboto and added that on their (NSCN-IM) withdrawal from the scene of fighting only 200 of its rival cadre were seen.
“The public of the area wonder as to where those 50/60 members of the I-K terrorist have gone. Have they gone to Alee command or to heaven? It is a matter of great surprise for one and all,” the NSCN (K) lamented. The NSCN (K) further asserted that its rival group was expert in hiding their casualties every time adding that they will profit nothing by hiding their casualties. Hiding their casualties was a sheer display of hypocrisy and weakness, the NSCN (K) added. “The media is expected to reveal the truth without fear or favour, in all matter; however they (Media) seem to shy away from their responsibilities. It will be nice if the media fully understand the falsehood of the I-K terrorist,” a press communiqué from the NSCN (K) stated.
