Rising People\u2019s Party (RPP) has said that the \u201cdeafening silence\u201d of the PDA government on IAS officer, Reny Wilfred, accused of sexual offence, exposed not just the moral bankruptcy of the officer but the \u201crotten nexus shielding him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RPP through its media cell, reminded that the IAS officer Reny Wilfred accused under POSCO Act for violating minor girls and systematically \u201cpreying on female subordinates\u201d does not only walk free but continues move through the corridors of power \u201cwith increasing arrogance.\u201d That is why, RPP said, instead of being placed under suspension, the state government rewarded Wilfred adding \u201cthis is criminal collusion at the highest level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RPP said the \u201cMetha-Rio-Wilfred nexus\u201d remains a festering wound on public discourse, and asked why the primary complainant Abu Metha, IDAN chairman and also chief minister Dr. Neiphiu Rio, remained conspicuously mute? RPP wondered if Wilfred\u2019s immunity was a \u201cquid pro quo for buried secrets?\u201d and so, who was obstructing the wheels of justice?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RPP said the \u201cstench of complicity\u201d reaches the Chief Minister\u2019s Office and linked this with Wilfred having openly claimed he had been approached to topple the government. RPP also said Wilfred ridiculed the judiciary and slandered the Nagaland State Commission for Women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RPP said even various women\u2019s organizations (NMA, AWO) and student bodies (NSF, DNSU) had demanded justice for the victims but their pleas were disregarded. RPP said this silence only confirmed that \u201cRio\u2019s administration is held hostage by this all-powerful bureaucrat.\u201dRPP hit out at the NDPP and questioned the PDA government\u2019s model of \u201cwomen empowerment\u201d and \u201cgood governance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It warned the government against pursuing vendetta politics against women complainants in the IDAN department with threats of termination of jobs and transfer. RPP vowed that it will be closely watching the issue. RPP concluded that the \u201cdirty episode exposes the putrid underbelly of Nagaland\u2019s power structure- and it continues to grow\u201d and that sooner or later, \u201cthis unholy protection and nexus must break.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
