Tamenglong, February 25, 2010:
The Thadou Students' Association, Chandel district has sought befitting action against one Premson Anal and his cohorts for assaulting Thangminlen, a class XI student in JNV Chandel, within the school campus on February 18. In a representation submitted to the Deputy Commissioner/Chairman JNV Chandel district, the TSA said that Premson and his cohorts thrashed Thangminlen until the body collapsed unconscious.
They also allegedly threaten to shoot teachers and other students who tried to intervene.
Appealing to the DC for intervention into the matter, the TSA asserted that Premson Anal and his cohorts should be booked under appropriate law.
Premson's family should bear all expenses for treatment of Thangminlen and the case should be settled according to Thadou customary law.
It further proposed shifting the JNV to another area if the present location is not safe for students belonging to different communities.
