Kohima, November 12:
One Tangkhul man indentified as Enoch was killed by the NSCN-K in Kohima yesterday.
Nagaland Police recovered the body at around 5:30 pm along NH-39 and Jotsoma road.
Enoch Tangkhul, aged around 30, son of SC Tangkhul, received two bullet injuries� one on his head and other on the chest.
The deceased reportedly hailed from Chakama village under Senepati district of Manipur State, police informed.
Police said that he was abducted from Jail colony, Kohima at around 11 am and the police were informed later about his abduction.
According to a Dimapur based newspaper, the NSCN (K) has claimed the killing of Enoch Tangkhul, while alleging that he was an informer of NSCN (IM).
Further the NSCN (K) also warned the Tangkhuls and disclosed that the killing was in continuation of the �Quit Notice� and asked them to leave the Nagas alone �as their intrusion into Naga politics has brought about irreparable setbacks in our National aspirations to unite Nagas under one banner and to attain our cherish dreams to live as one people and Nation�.
The Tangkhuls are being asked to leave the �Nagas and the Naga country� by the NSCN-K, according to the Dimapur based newspaper.
Meanwhile, the NSCN-IM has strongly condemned the killing of Enoch.
NSCN-IM deputy kilonser for MIP Kraibo Chawang informed Newmai News Network tonight that the charges of the rival NSCN-K were ridiculous.
Chawang said that the statement of the NSCN-K is self contradictory.
The NSCN-IM leader said the NSCN-K's statement said that Enoch Tangkhul was killed for being an informer of the NSCN-IM and again the same statement said that the killing was a follow up of the Quit Notice served on the Tangkhuls.
�Was Enoch killed for being an informer or the Quit Notice follow up?� countered Kraibo Chawang to the NSCN-K statement.
He then alleged that some overground politicians are using some NSCN-K leaders behind the Quit Notice served on the Tangkhuls.
