Dimapur, June 7 (MExN): The NSCN/GPRN (Khango) has condemned the reported ‘raids carried out by the 43 Assam Rifles to Obed T Naga, Secretary, Ministry of Kilo (Home) affairs residence at Thilixu village on June 3 at 11: 30 AM.’
The MIP, NSCN/GPRN (Khango) in a press release alleged that “The undisciplined AR boys encircled the official after he reached his residence returning from the social engagement service and raised several unwarranted questions which are uncalled for.” They also claimed that “The AR personnel at gun barrel intimated the NSCN official to append thumb impression and signature in NOC after they failed to find any evidence from his possession.”
“The NSCN/GPRN signed the Ceasefire Agreement with Government of India (GoI) as two separate entity and the raid carried out by the AR boys is directly gross violation of Ceasefire Ground rules clause (d) which may affect the hard-earned ceasefire process in near future,” they stated.
“When the NSCN and GoI are fully committed to settle the vexed Naga political issue through peaceful means at this crucial stage the blatant actions meted out by the Assam Rifles creates a fear psychosis to the National workers and general Naga public,” the release added.
Therefore, NSCN/GPRN (Khango) has “appealed to the concerned authority to educate their boys the ceasefire ground rules and its mechanism in order to maintain a congenial atmosphere between the two entities without any unnecessary provocation caused by some security personnel.”
