NONGPOH, Sep 23: Marcus Marten, former president of the Hynniewtrep National Youth Front (HNYF), Northern Region, and current vice president of the central body, has been expelled from the organisation for violating its code of conduct. The leadership stated that his actions were unacceptable, but they opted not to publicly disclose the specific details.
The decision was announced on Monday at a press briefing here by general secretary of HNYF Northern Region Alfred Mallai.
He was joined by Heasting Lyngdoh, president of HNYF Northern Region, and organizing secretary Barna Manih, who is also serving as the ad hoc vice president of the central body, along with other members of the Northern Region unit.
Following the announcement, the leadership urged members of the organisation and the general public, especially those associated with Marcus Marten, to no longer consider him part of HNYF.
In addition, the leadership extended their gratitude to all HNYF members, including the leaders and special invitees who attended the recent installation ceremony of the new office-bearers of the Northern Region unit, held in Umsning, Ri-Bhoi.
