IMPHAL, Mar 31 : The Manipur Naga People's Front (MNPF) has condemned the recent killing of four cadres of NSCN, Eastern Flank, allegedly by the NSCN (IM) at Hongbei Village, located in Kasom Khullen Sub-Division of Kamjong district.
MNPF, in a statement issued by its secretary publi- city Thomas Numai, stated that the four NSCN, Eastern Flank cadres were tragically shot dead on March 28, while Christians were preparing to observe Palm Sunday.
Expressing strong disapproval of the killing, the Front accused the NSCN (IM) of showing no mercy and failing to understand the value of revolutionary principles.
The MNPF expressed solidarity with the grief of the NSCN Eastern Flank.
Claiming that the killing was part of a conspiracy to divert attention from the Kuki-Naga conflict and facilitate joint trade between the Indian Army, NSCN (IM), and the Kukis, the Front asserted that it is deeply unfortunate for the NSCN (IM) to resort to killing its own kin amid the ongoing ethnic conflict.
It also stated that the alleged misdeeds of the NSCN (IM) have tarnished the image of all revolutionary groups, causing people to lose faith in these movements.
The MNPF further claimed that the NSCN (IM) working at the behest of India at a time when revolutionary groups in WESEA are striving for a unified solution poses a dangerous threat to the region, especially to the Tangkhul community,
The recent incident at Hongbei, according to the MNPF, will be remembered in history as a negative chapter for the Naga revolutionary movement.
As the Naga people, particularly the Tangkhul community, demand justice, the MNPF urged the NSCN (IM) to clarify why the four cadres of the NSCN, Eastern Flank were killed and under whose orders they were executed, to the victims' families and the Tangkhul community.
