Imphal, August 30 2010:
National Socialist Council of Nagalim, Ceasefire Monitoring Cell, Chandel branch has strongly condemned the arrest of Ng Koningam, deputy kilonser , GPRN by Imphal West Police commandos from Imphal on August 26 despite 'being well-versed with the existing ceasefire agreement between Government of India and NSCN'.
In a statement, CFMC Chandel branch member P Tongsin decried the arrest as a deliberate act on the part of Government of Manipur and its forces to infuse disharmony and disrupt cordial relationship and co-existence between NSCN and Central forces in Manipur.
''The most disheartening fact is that despite our utmost effort to maintain patience so as to shun violence, some elements with ill-intentions and evil design are labouring hard to arouse the warrior instinct from within us, thereby dragging us to the part of violence/war'', Tongsin said, while appealing to all and sundry not to compel them to part with their hard earned peace which 'we value most and are too dear
to part with'.
