Dimapur, April 4 (MExN): Asserting that the genocides and acts of terrorism committed ‘particularly’ upon the Naga people by the NSCN-IM under the Collective Leadership are conspicuous and well-known to the people and God, the NSCN-K advises against playing down the “crimes of the I-K men.”
According to a note from Yato Konyak, “Under Secretary” of “Home Affairs” NSCN-K, in spite of these crimes, many people tries to hide the truths and downplay the crimes of the NSCN-IM. These are by way of using the terms “undergrounds” or “underground factions.”
“Don’t say ‘undergrounds’ or ‘factions.’ If it is I-K (I-M) say I-K, if it is FGN/NNC, mention the organization directly or if it is GPRN/NSCN spell out the name of the group” the note advised. “Naga people, don’t play hypocrite. Make your words clear and unambiguous. Don’t play on the lives of men” it added.
The note further mentioned that on December 14 last year, two school children Moheni Martin and Hruni Hubert, both 10, were kidnapped from Senapati by one Manikho Mao and a Brawn Tangkhul for ransom. They received an undisclosed amount of the ransom but later the two children were killed. The NSCN-IM then took away “their cadres’ at Hebron Camp where the accused and their accomplices are hiding, the note stated. Once the accused are handed over to the appropriate authorities they would spill the beans so because of this fear the NSCN-IM are hiding the killers, it maintained adding that this is a repetition of the shooting of Dr Moangwati in Dimapur years back.
The NSCN-K also mentioned several instances stated as committed by the NSCN-IM. These included the killing of two Konyak youths in January, the Kiphire massacre of a family, the landmine explosion where the chairman of Chalkot village was killed and the recent killing of a person at Aolichen and several other instances. These acts are violation of the ceasefire ground rules, the issue of which was raised in Mon on March 24 by the NSCN (K) with the Government of India, however AK Goyal, Director of “Indian Intelligence Bureau” “angrily told Mulatonu not to raise such issues involving I-K terrorists’, the release stated. The release further alleged that the GOI and its intelligence wings knows of these developments but is “deliberately hiding the crimes of the terrorists” it added.
