Imphal, July 27 2009:
Naga frontal organizations condemned in strongest term the barbaric act of killing of a pregnant woman identified as Thokchom Rabina in front of her three years old son report edly by the State police commandos on July 23 at the busy Imphal market in broad daylight.
The United Naga Council (UNC), All Naga Students Association, Manipur (ANSAM), Naga Lemons Union, Manipur (NLUM) and Naga Peoples Movement for Humman Rights (NPMHR) joined the other civil societies of Manipur in expressing extreme shock over the manner of the State police in failing to control the situation to avoid inflicting casualty on civilian population.
The sincerity and integrity of the State Police Department and policing system in all issues related to extrajudicial killing, State terrorism and fake encounter have been a nightmare for the people of Manipur, the Naga organisations said.
The organization blamed that the State security forces instead of providing protection and security are extorting and terrifying the people, and this is one of the reasons why the hill people are opposed to the Cabinet decision of deploying IRBs and commandos in the hill areas, justified the Naga bodies.
In this regard, the Naga frontal organizations assured full support in all sorts of democratic protests to be launched by the joint action committee (JAC) formed against the killing of Rabina and her unborn son till the demands are met, they further added.
