Ukhrul, January 14 2025:
National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN) has publicly refuted the claims made by the Manipur Police regarding the status of Molham Kuki village, accusing the Manipur Police of misleading the public with concocted statement.
In a statement issued by MIP, NSCN/GPRN late Tuesday evening, the NSCN said that it chose to be assertive about the ground reality that Molham Kuki village is the main base of the Kuki militants.
"NSCN is not blind to this.
Our stand is open for public scrutiny and verification.
The statement of Manipur Police that BSF coys will be housed in Molham Kuki village is ridiculously misleading.
If BSF coys is to be established in Molham Kuki village, then the collusion of the Centre and state governments with the Kuki militants is an established fact as made to believe for many years," it contended.
"For public awareness on factual situations, we have the courage to stand that there is no such CRPF or BSF in Molham Kuki village.
The village only housed Kuki militants that numbered around 200 .
That Molham village is used as the headquarters of the Kuki militants is an "open secret" and anybody can cross check it from the spot" .
It continued that "If the Manipur Police stands by their version that BSF coys will be based in Molham Kuki village, it establishes another fact that Kuki militants would be based there disguised as BSF boys.
Another conclusion forced on us is that BSF coys there to guard the Kuki militants from Naga Army attack.
"Accountability" and "transparency" Manipur Police is deliberately not showing up.
They can fool the Nagas in particular and the general public for sometimes, but not always" .
The NSCN further pointed-out that one Bihar Regiment camp is located at Karong river.
"It is not a CRPF camp.
This is where Manipur Police is caught misleading the public with their concocted statement that those trucks are for CRPF at Molham Kuki village when there is no CRPF camp around there.
Manipur Police need to break this "TRUST DEFICIT" and re-establish its credibility," the statement added.
