Dimapur, Nov. 14 (EMN): Naga entrepreneur, Zuboni Humtsoe – a recipient of Nari Shakti Puraskar award in 2016 and the brain behind Precious Me love (PML), an online fashion house – was found dead at her Dimapur residence on Monday night. She was 28.
She has been reported to have committed suicide. Humtsoe received the Nari Shakti Puraskar award from the former President of India Pranab Mukherjee in March 2017, at Rashtrapati Bhavan, New Delhi for her outstanding contribution to women empowerment. The award was bestowed by the Union Ministry of Women and Child Development.

In an interview with Eastern Mirror in 2015, Humtsoe had shared her vision of making PML a world class ‘Made in Nagaland’ brand.
