Ukhrul, Jan 14: The National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN) has said it “chooses to be assertive about the ground reality that Molham Kuki village is the main base of the Kuki militants,” adding that “NSCN is not blind to this. Our stand is open for public scrutiny and verification.”
Refuting the statement of Manipur Police, it said that it finds “ridiculously misleading” that BSF coys will be housed in Molham Kuki village. “If BSF coys are to be established in Molham Kuki village, then the collusion of the Centre and state governments with the Kuki militants is a fact as made to believe for many years,” NSCN-IM said.

The NSCN-IM then maintained that “Molham village only housed Kuki militants who 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.”
Further, the NSCN-IM questioned, “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 are there to guard the Kuki militants from the Naga Army attack. “Accountability” and “transparency,” Manipur Police is deliberately not showing up. They can fool the Nagas, in particular, and the general public sometimes, but not always.”

“For further enlightenment to the public, it is pertinent to point 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 needs to break this “TRUST DEFICIT” and re-establish its credibility,” the NSCN-IM said.
