Imphal, November 09 2012:
Zeliangrong United Front has vehemently rejected the alleged 'irresponsible outburst' of Rev.Kaiba Remei against one of the warring parties in Tamenglong district including Khoupum, Houchong, Longmai and Tamenglong H.Qtrs. It is very unwise on the part of a member of FGN to target one group instead of trying to normalise the tense situation in the area.
Rev.Kaiba alleged that trouble started in the area since the emergence of ZUF and it seems he is neither interested in bringing peace nor finding truth, the outfit asserted.
Questioning that it is NSCN-IM which very often started all the gun battles in Tamenglong district, ZUF maintained that since March 5, 2010 NSCN-IM hunted down ZUF at Khoupum valley and killed one of the ZUF cadres and they continue to do so till now.
There would have been no violence if the NSCN-IM kept silent when ZUF is not against any party.
Information Secretary of ZUF A.Dangmei observed that "the Front has clarified over and over again about the objective to protect Zeliangrong lands and people without hindrance to any other party but Rev.Kaiba Remei must not have read newspapers.
He is showing his position as spoke person for NSCN-IM alone.
He is not at all a good peace maker that FNR must drop him from the forum at once.
If he continues, more violence may occur" .
Dangmei also appealed to all not to be misled by such person who is bereft of negotiating knowledge and diplomacy for peace.
Rev.Kaiba should clarify through media within a week's time, he demanded.
