DIMAPUR, APRIL 30 (MExN): The NSCN (R) has accused the NSCN (IM) for random attack and arrest of its members, with the latest instance being the arrest of two deputy kilonsers namely Yamthong and Tangsoi on April 30 from Dimapur.
Terming the act as most “unfortunate and uncalled for,” a press statement received from MIP Secretary, NSCN (R) questioned whether the arrest made by the regional authority of the NSCN (IM) was done in their own individual interest or through orders from the higher authority. The NSCN (R) informed that only recently, two of its cadres were arrested by the NSCN (IM) and have been in their custody ever since.
It said such illegal and unwanted activities towards genuine Nagas would not bring any solution but only create disunity. It will also be detrimental toward peace and unity, at a time when the NSCN (IM) is engaged with the Government of India for solution, the NSCN (R) added. Further, the NSCN (R) also “pleaded upon the Naga people” to ponder over the activities of NSCN (IM) for targeting its members without any rhyme and reasons- even when it affirmed and unanimously resolved to support the Naga peace accord signed between the NSCN (IM) and GoI.
In this connection, the NSCN (R) has appealed to all the Naga National Political Groups (NPGs) to adhere and uphold the principle and integrity of peace and reconciliation to bring a fruitful solution to the protracted Naga political problem.
