Joint Action Committee of the Naga Mothers’ Association (NMA) has urged the state chief minister to initiate prompt action in adherence to the clause of the ceasefire ground rules and arrest the culprit involved in assassination bid on Imtila Jamir May on 27 last, wherever he may be.
NMA president Abie-U Meru and secretary Lochumbeni Humtsoe also drew the chief minister’s attention on what it termed “highly objectionable” act of home minister Imkong L.Imchen who refused to meet the delegation of Naga women, with vague excuses, when they had gone to his official residence to submit the memorandum in the morning of June 18, 2011.
The JAC said when the memorandum was submitted to Imchen’s PS the latter refused to accept it on the plea that the minister was not at home. “The committee has viewed this very seriously,” it said.
JAC also demanded that the accomplice, now in the custody of the NSCN/GPRN, be handed over to the police for action as per the law.
In the memorandum, JAC termed it “unfortunate” that SIT/police failed to arrest absconding culprit Worshim Kashungl till date despite strong protest and appeals.
JAC also pointed out that matter was even more serious as the said culprit had the audacity to ring up and threaten the victim on the night of June 28 at 10.45 p.m.
It also condemned the threat on Imtila’s life the very night when leaders of the action committee of the Watsu Mongdang and the Ao Senden met the collective leadership at New Delhi at 9.30 p.m.. JAC said it was “highly questionable” that barely an hour after memorandum was submitted to the collective leadership for action, the culprit resorted to threatening the victim again.
In the light of the above, the JAC demanded that the state government immediately initiate prompt action through ceasefire monitoring group as a priority issue.
