Imphal, June 14 2026:
The Meetei (Meitei) Tribe Union (MMTU) has lambasted both the Government of India and the State Government for their failure to take any concrete action after the chilling murder of six Zeliangrong Naga hostages.
The barbarous manner of murdering the six Naga hostages abducted from Leilon Vaiphei village on May 13, 2026 was a crime against humanity, the MMTU denounced in a statement.
This crime against humanity was committed by a terrorist group allegedly supported by the Government of India.
The failure of the Government of India and the State Government to take up any concrete action after this gruesome murder gives an impression that India does not see Manipur as one of its States, it remarked.
The MMTU said that all the people know who abducted and murdered the six Zeliangrong Nagas in the most barbarous manner.
It was rather surprising that the Government of India's huge number of security agencies deployed in the State could not locate the six hostages for almost one month, the union asserted.
The State Government is quite mistaken if it is thinking that the people's anger and wounded sentiment can be addressed by handing over to the NIA .
A large number of killings which took place in the course of the protracted violence have already been handed over to the NIA but the investigating agency is unable to solve or do justice to any of these cases, the MMTU said.
It alleged that the Government of India has been waging a proxy war using Kukis who came from Myanmar to suppress the indigenous people of Manipur.
At the same time, the Government of India has been implementing a diabolic policy to create demographic imbalance by facilitating immigration and settlement of Kukis from Myanmar in Manipur.
The Government of India has been plotting continuously to ignite a Sudan-like civil war in Manipur, it said.
All the indigenous people need to come together and fight these sinister policies and the growing challenges to their rights and survival, it added.
