Kohima, November 2 (MExN): The Thenyizumi Students’ Union (TSU) has vehemently condemned the irresponsible act of a complainant, a graduate teacher under DIS Chozuba on whose “distorted and misguided” information, a juvenile was arrested and unceremoniously subjected to “brutal physical torture and inhuman assault.”
The juvenile, who hails from Thenyizumi village, was arrested by the duty officer of North PS basing on a complaint filed by the teacher on October 24 and allegedly tortured physically the whole night.
In a press note, TSU President Nesazo Theyo and General Secretary Besuhkhoto Swuro also expressed its pain and shock to observe how a teacher could be so "vulnerable to such misgiving" which consequently invited undesirable actions from the law enforcement agencies.
How could a juvenile be subjected to inhuman treatment causing physical and mental agony, TSU further wondered adding that even the constitution of India has special provision for thier protection.
The untold explanation and unprovoked action inside the cell is violation of all human rights under any established laws, TSU categorically stated.
The union further appealed the concerned authority to take remedial and corrective action against the erring official(s) involved in the action amounting to “violation of human rights and juvenile justice” against one of its fellow student.
