Imphal, March 09:
Zeliangrong Students' Union Nagaland (ZSUN) and All Zeliangrong Students' Union (AZSU) has strongly condemned the reported abduction of three Jalukielo villagers� Alinglung, R Kamson and their mother allegedly by Shikuto villagers in the aftermath of the 12 hours Peren district bandh called by the Union in protest against the encroachment and forceful establishment of villages in Zeliangrong areas of Dhansiripur sub-division and Peren district.
A joint statement issu ed by ZSUN and AZSU asserted that the abduction was aimed at creating tension and disturbing the bandh.
Reacting to the allegation made by Shikuto villagers that 'armed miscreants hired by Jalukielo from Manipur entered and destroyed village plantations on March 6', AZSU clarified that the allegation was totally false and baseless.
It was aimed at covering up their criminal acts committed against the innocent genuine land owners.
The head GB of the newly founded Shikuto village has no moral right to question the identity of Zeliangrong people whether they are inhabitants of Assam, Manipur or Nagaland.
