GPRN/NSCN has informed that “basing on the true spirit of Christianity”, a reconciliation service was held between GPRN/NSCN and Viyilho village on June 18 at Viyilho Baptist Church.
According to a press release by GPRN/NSCN MIP, on November 19, 2011, “deserted cadres” from GPRN/NSCN’s operation command stationed at Tokiye town while “fleeing” shot dead Daniel Yeptho, a civilian of Viyilho village in a “cold blooded manner” which resulted in the declaration of non cooperation towards the GPRN/NSCN. However, “basing on the principle of true Christianity”, GPRN/NSCN said the deceased family members, elders and the citizens of the Viyilho village have decided to withdraw its previous non cooperation movement towards the GPRN/NSCN.
GPRN/NSCN MIP said the programme began with a prayer followed by the formal address of forgiveness from the family member, words of reconciliation from GBs from different villages and towns and acknowledgement address by “officials” of GPRN/NSCN.
The programme was attended by representative of the Zunheboto GBs association, Aghunato Gbs association, some head GBs of Tokiye range, citizens of the Viyilho village and GPRN/NSCN officials led by the R.A.O Sumi region and the camp commander of Ghukiye Designated camp, Naga Army.
