Dimapur: National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN-IM) said today that it was shocked beyond words as “we learnt about what happened to DK. Korungthang Maring on January 30, 2024, at the hands of Para Military Personnel of 3rd Assam Rifles”. 

In a press release, the NSCN-IM alleged, “What really caught the attention of all who value human rights is the appalling behavior of 3rd Assam Rifles post in Tengnoupal, Manipur, targeting an innocent person and looting Rs. 4 lakh in cash and Maruti Gypsy after giving 3rd degree torture to DK. Korungthang”.

The press statement of the NSCN-IM then said that this is nothing less than committing dacoity. The NSCN-IM further said that those Assam Rifles personnel involved in the crime deserves to be meted befitting punishment after getting them arrested and tried under IPC applicable to torture and dacoity.
