Kangpokpi, May 26 2020: The Kuki Students' Organization-GHQ has categorically stated that the release of former ADC Chandel Chairman, Lhukhosei Zou and the transfer of Th Brinda (MPS) should not be linked in no way.

Thanglenmang Simte, general secretary, KSO-GHQ said that the released of former Chairman and the transferred of Th Brinda MPS should in no way be linked together adding that the former Chairman who was accused of drug trafficking was granted interim bail as Court saw it fit to do so while Th Brinda got transferred because of her misdemeanours.

"Her total disregard of Court decorum, her subsequent verbal abuse of the Judge in social media and her hostile threat to a lady doctor have resulted in action taken against her", he added.

He also said that there is a clear line separating judiciary and legislature and the Government cannot interfere in the judgement of the Court.

Accusing the Government of having a hand in the judgement of the Court is naive and ignorant, he said and added that if the CSOs want to contest the interim bail of the former Chairman, it is fitting that they should move the higher Court of law instead of trying to instigate a mob.

Therefore, the threat against the Government made by the CSOs is totally uncalled for and it does not augur well for fostering mutual understanding between communities, he added.

Meanwhile, the student body also said that labelling the former Chairman as 'drug lord' by the CSOs is strongly objectionable as the accused is yet to be proven guilty.
