Imphal, June 12 2012:
The Zeliangrong United Front (ZUF) has clarified that there is no nexus with Assam Riffle from the very beginning and the allegation of NSCN (IM) appeared in some sections of the media on June 12 was baseless and unfounded.
In a statement posted to Makam Post, Joint Secretary of ZUF A.Remroi asserted that contrary to the allegation, the nexus between NSCN (IM) and Assam Riffle nexus is well known.
However, NSCN (IM) falsely alleged ZUF/ZTF heroes, who fought and died for the people, out of jealousy.
They also accused ZUF/ZTF with having nexus with police due to frustration.
Recalling that armed cadres of Zeliangrong Tiger force (ZTF) of ZUF have driven out the NSCN (IM) cadres from Houchong area after an encounter on 30th May 2012, Remroi questioned why NSCN (IM) came to die in the Zeliangrong area and not in other parts of Nagaland? Why ZUF/ZTF cadres are always hunted while they allow other Nagas or tribes to set up UG groups, demand Frontier Nagaland state and alternative arrangement in Manipur? .
Further asking if the cease fire was for NSCN (IM) alone, and not for all Nagas including Zeliangrong Nagas, Remroi contended that the Peace process between GoI and NSCN (IM) will not bear fruit and the people have no more hope over any solution.
Thousands of own Nagas brothers were killed by NSCN (IM) and they try to sabotage and destroye all developments in Zeliangrong area which cannot be tolerated anymore.
ZUF/ ZTF will defend own people, lands and resources and cultures, Remroi said, adding that ZUF/ ZTF cadres are ready to sacrifice their precious lives for the sake of the people and the indigenous land.
