DIMAPUR — The Naga Council Dimapur (NCD) has lauded Dimapur Police for nabbing three extortionists who were caught red-handed while demanding money from the business community in the past two weeks.
The NCD, in a press release, iterated that the integrity and sanctity of all Dimapur-based civil society organisations is to uphold peace and harmony amongst Naga communities, non-Naga communities, business communities and student communities at all times in Dimapur.
The council asserted that any individual or group indulging in anti-social activities to destabilise or create disturbance in the Dimapur, would invite strong reaction and condemnation from all the Dimapur-based CSOs and communities.
It went on to state that as long as Naga political problem remains unresolved, multiple taxation by Naga political groups and monetary demand and extortion by individuals or impersonators will continue in Dimapur.
“NCD appeals to all sections of communities, particularly business communities, to be vigilant at all times and be spontaneous in reporting any forceful coercive money demand/extortion/collection by any unabated individuals/groups to the law enforcing police and agencies for immediate action so as to maintain normal law and order in Dimapur,” it stated.
The council further appealed to all Naga political groups to control their cadres from seeking easy money through extortion or any other form of monetary collection and donation from the businessmen community in Dimapur.
