NSCN-IM walks out of cease-fire monitoring talks

Kohima: the NSCN-IM representatives walked out from the meeting with the Cease Fire Monitoring Group (CFMG), Government of India at Police Complex, Chumukedima in Dimapur yesterday.
The meeting was the 72nd meeting between the CFMG and the NSCN-IM’s Cease Fire Monitoring Cell (CFMC). NSCN-IM Cease Fire Monitoring Cell (CFMC) convener Kraibo Chawang has alleged that while imposing ‘the law of the land’, the Government of India,  through  the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has ‘booked’ its leaders  by accusing them of waging a war against the Indian Union.
Kraibo alleged that a Deputy Superintendent of NIA had summoned Isak, Muivah, Atem and others to a court recently accusing them of waging a war against the Union of India.
The Government of  India  should create conducive atmosphere for the solution of this persistent problem  but it is difficult for us when the CFMG Chairman himself has  said that the ceasefire does not extend beyond the frontiers of  Nagaland.
This is an insult to the whole Naga people and our collective leaders, said Chawang.CFMG Chairman Lt. General (Retd) N. K.Singh on NSCN-IM stated that as ‘far as his jurisdiction is concerned,  it is only within the frontiers of Nagaland.
‘ General Singh also mentioned  during the  meeting that , th e issues of NSCN-IM’s illegal detention camps which were   discovered in recent months were also brought out and discussed  in  today’s meeting, he informed. (UNI)
