Imphal, March 14:
Kuki National Army (KNA) has asserted that president of Kuki Inpi Konghom Area Jamthang Haokip was privately kidnapped and brutally murdered by one Lalkhohen alias L Jacob group of the KRA/ROCK on baseless political grounds and petty personal grudges.
In a statement Commander Wing No.VI of the outfit CL Kuki clarifies that Jamthang was an honest social worker and public leaders and he had no connection with KNA/KNO whatsoever.
He was executed by the said gang of KL Jacob without full knowledge and permission from the Commander-in-Chief of the KRA but was claim it belatedly to save the image of their organisation due to sheer public pressure, the statement said.
Clarifying further that no money was involved, the statement said heaping wild fantastic charges after assassination to mislead the general public is unacceptable and most shameful.
The public should know that KRA is a reactionary forces rather than a revolutionary outfit.
CL Kuki further said he was directly invited by the Commander-in-Chief of KRA/ROCK to join the outfit and he left UKLF because of its connection with NSCN (I-M) and joined the KNO/KNA instead since KNO/KNA is fighting for independent nation of Zalengam.
