Imphal, March 30 2016:
The Liangmai Naga Council, Manipur (LNC-M)
has condemned the recent physical assault on
Marenmai village chief RK Remping on March
22, reports our correspondent.
In a statement, LNC, Manipur has also emanded justice for the victim and to take
appropriate actions against the involved in-
dividuals.
Though the incident occurred a week
back, authority concerned has not taken up
any action till date.
The LNC also demanded immediate sus-
pension of the Custom Officer for allegedly
threatening the innocent civilians with his
service revolver.
It further questioned the authority con-
cerned as to why a Custom Officer is
involved in a land dispute and no action has
been initiated against him for committing
such offence against the civilians.
Apart from physically assaulting the vil-
lage chief, the culprits also verbally abused
the villagers.
Failing to initiate befitting action against
the culprits would result to intense agita-
tion, the statement warned.
