IMPHAL, Jun 11: The Nagaland Tribal Hohos Coordination Committee (NTHCC) has expressed anguish, outrage, and unequivocal condemnation of the heinous and cold-blooded murder of six innocent Naga individuals in Manipur.
The recovery of their mutilated mortal remains has confirmed the worst fears of the Naga people and exposed a horrific, barbaric, and utterly inhuman crime that has shocked the conscience of all humanity, it said in a statement.
This brutal crime is not only an attack on the victims and their families but a direct assault on the dignity, security, and collective existence of the Naga people, it added.
The NTHCC also expressed its appreciation to the United Naga Council (UNC) for its timely and commendable humanitarian intervention in facilitating the safe release of 14 Kuki hostages.
While the release of the hostages has brought immense relief to their families, it does not diminish the gravity of the heinous murder of the six innocent Naga victims, it said.
The killing of innocent civilians can never be justified by any political, ethnic, territorial, or ideological consideration, it added.
Failure to ensure swift justice will only embolden further acts of violence and undermine public confidence in the ability of the State to protect innocent citizens, it asserted.
It shared the pain of the bereaved families and prayed for the departed souls to rest in eternal peace.
