Khaplang gets 'army' boost
The Telegraph | Kohima, June 26:
In a setback to the Khole-Kitovi faction of the NSCN (K), the outfit’s military wing has joined the Myanmar-based rival group of S.S. Khaplang.
Self-styled major general Niki Sumi of the outfit’s military wing reiterated faith in the leadership of Khaplang and said they would remain loyal to their chairman. He said the outfit’s army formations in Nagaland were intact with Khaplang and not with the Khole-Kitovi camp and that the three designated camps at Suruhoto, Athibung and Sangphur were also with the Khaplang group.
With this development, the Konyaks have been sharply divided between the Khole-Kitovi and Khaplang factions. A turf fight in the Konyak area (Mon district) cannot be ruled out in the future though both the groups have vowed not to go back to the fratricidal period, which had claimed hundreds of Naga lives.
