Dimapur, Oct. 1 (EMN): The Wancho Region National Workers (WRNW) of National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN) has expressed anguish over the way Indian security forces are targeting its workers, including harassment and arrest after following the killing of Khonsa West MLA Tirong Aboh in May this year in Arunachal Pradesh by unidentified militants.

The NSCN (IM) informed this in a statement through its Ministry of Information and Publicity on Tuesday.

So far, seven (7) of its members has been arrested during the last three (3) months. The operation continues, so is the harassment.
