Imphal, December 18:
While strongly refuting the allegation hurled against one Pingkiu of Langpram (Nheng) by Captain Pourang of the FGN/NNC appeared in newspapers in the Dec 17 editions, the former has today clarified that the allegations were totally false.
Pingkiu said that his name is not Joyson as alleged by Captain Pourang of the FGN/NNC.
Pingkiu further clarified that he was not involved in any extortion activity, intimidation to the public and also did not carry out extortion spree along the national highways as alleged by Captain Pourang.
Expressing profound resentment over the manner Captain Pourang had tarnished his prestige, Pingkiu said that the allegation put forth in the press by the former was unfounded but an attempt of his character assassination.
Pingkiu also said that no proof or evidence could be furnished to support that he had been extorting or intimidating to the public.
Pingkiu then put the record straight that, at any point of time he did not misuse the name of FGN/NNC as alleged by Capt Pourang.
Urging to be more mature in dealing things, Pingkiu stated that unnecessary and unfounded allegations hurled against anyone from any quarter will not prove fruitful in the cause of the Naga nation.
