Head Office: Chassad
Motto: Peace and Prosperity

Ref. No. 06/2026/EKCA/PR-05 Date: 19/06/2026

PRESS STATEMENT

The Eastern Kuki Chiefs’ Association condemns the actions taken by the 11 Assam Rifles on 19 June 2026 near Molvailup at around 4:30 AM against our volunteers, who have been actively patrolling and safeguarding Kuki villages in Kamjong District.

Instead of taking decisive action against the actual aggressors, security forces have chosen to target volunteers who are stepping in to protect vulnerable Kuki civilians. This displacement of focus is both deeply misguided and highly ungrateful. We formed the volunteers with a singular mission: to protect our people, who have been left entirely undefended by the security forces.

We formally confront the security forces with the following critical questions regarding their inaction and apparent double standards:

Humanitarian Neglect:

What measures have security forces taken regarding the burning of Lanchah village and the forced starvation of Kuki civilians in Kamjong District? The Nagas have imposed a severe economic embargo on the Kuki community, prohibiting them from purchasing essentials, including life-saving medicine, and completely cutting off their supply lines. Yet, there has been total silence and inaction from the security forces and state government.

Failure to Contain Violence:

What is being done about the recent burning of Kultuh village and the brutal killing of two civilians by Tangkhul militants and Myanmar-based militants (SNA)?

National Security Compromise:

Why are foreign militants being allowed to freely cross the border, ally with Tangkhul militants, and launch attacks on innocent Indian citizens inside Indian territory? Security forces cannot claim ignorance. They are fully aware that these foreign militants have been openly occupying Indian territory, specifically residing in Chahong Khunou, Chatric Khunou, and Chatric Khullen for the past two years. Why has absolutely no action been taken to neutralize this cross-border threat?

Our Demand:

We urgently call upon the concerned authorities to launch a thorough investigation into this partial treatment, the unchecked cross-border militant operations, and the ongoing humanitarian crisis affecting the Kuki population.

CONDMNATION | 17 June 2026

MLA Letzamang Haokip has strongly condemned the killing of Lenminsang, son of Lenkhogin Haokip, at North Songkong Village, Henglep Sub-Division.

The statement describes the incident as deeply disturbing and unacceptable, raising serious concerns over the loss of a civilian life during a security operation. It further notes allegations from eyewitnesses that, after being shot, the victim's clothes were removed and his body was taken away by joint security forces. Allegations have also been raised that attempts were made to portray the incident as a fake encounter.

The MLA stated that if these allegations are proven true, they would constitute a grave abuse of authority and a serious violation of the rule of law, requiring immediate, impartial, and transparent investigation.

He further expressed concern over the continued failure to return the mortal remains of the deceased to his family, stating that every family has the right to perform the last rites of their loved ones with dignity and respect.

The statement demands:

• Immediate recovery and handover of the mortal remains to the family.
• A thorough judicial and independent inquiry into the incident.
• Stringent action against all those found responsible.
• Investigation into any attempt to conceal facts, tamper with evidence, or misrepresent the circumstances surrounding the death.

MLA Letzamang Haokip extended his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family and reaffirmed his support for their pursuit of truth, justice, and accountability.

Justice for Lenminsang.

Kuki-Zo women kneel in prayer on the streets, standing in solidarity with the people of Leilon Vaiphei village, who have been subjected to a military-style lockdown by Central Security Forces.

Instead of protection, villagers who are already traumatised by violence are facing fear, searches, and intimidation. Women, children, students, the elderly, and innocent civilians should never be made to suffer after already enduring conflict and hardship.

Today, prayers rise from the streets, but so does a call for justice, dignity, and protection. The voices of the people of Leilon Vaiphei must be heard. Peace cannot be built through fear, intimidation, or the victimisation of those who have already suffered.

Stop victimising the victims. Protect Leilon Vaiphei. Uphold justice. End the intimidation.

Manipur : Kuki Inpi South West Sadar Hills strongly condemns the armed assault on L. Munlui Village on June 15, 2026 at approx 6am by NSCN-IM and ZUF-Kamson, leaving three civilians critically injured and demand iimmediate action, a thorough investigation, and accountability against those responsible. The safety of civilians must be ensured, and justice must prevail.

[KAPTHANG KUKI @KapthangHaokip]

Shame ! #Manipur.

@manipur_police

Everybody can do whatever they want to kukis by calling them kuki militants, attacking their village, burning their village, murdering them, and denying healthcare for those wounded.

[Ah.Hmar @ArianaHmar37783]

Hospitals must remain places of healing, not conflict. The continuing unrest at #RIMS, #Imphal is affecting patients, healthcare workers, and essential medical services. All sides must exercise restraint, prioritize public safety, and work towards restoring normalcy peacefully.

[J Shakur @JShakurB]

🆘️The Manipur Govt, RIMS Director & the entire medical staff have completely abdicated their constitutional mandate & betrayed the very tenets of medical ethics by forcibly EVICTING 3 kuki patients from the premier facility in the dead of night, simply because blood thirsty hounds filled with hatred had gathered outside its gates.

🚨This forced expulsion was not a medical transfer, it was compliance with a lynching mob.

■Where these patients are being treated now is irrelevant to the larger issue, the gut-wrenching reality is that this "premier" medical establishment, which was established through the collective efforts of all Northeastern states to serve the citizens of the region without fear or favour has allowed itself to become an accomplice & instrument of ethnic persecution.

🆘️Complete separation is no longer merely a political necessity, it is an existential imperative!!

Was Mr. Lenminsang of Kolchung Village deliberately killed while present at Songkong Village, Henglep Subdivision, Manipur? This serious question deserves a thorough, impartial, and transparent investigation. Authorities must establish the facts, determine responsibility, and ensure accountability based on evidence, not speculation, in the interest of justice and public trust.

Notable deliberate killing of civilian in India:

1. Pathribal Killings (Jammu & Kashmir, 2000)
* Five civilians were killed and later presented as foreign militants allegedly responsible for the Chittisinghpura massacre.
* Investigations by the Central Bureau of Investigation concluded the encounter was staged, though prosecutions became legally complex.
2. Machil Fake Encounter Case (Jammu & Kashmir, 2010)
* Three civilians were killed and falsely portrayed as infiltrating militants.
* A military court later convicted several Army personnel, making it one of the rare cases resulting in convictions.
3. Malom Massacre (Manipur, 2000)
* Ten civilians were reportedly killed by personnel of the Assam Rifles at Malom near Imphal.
* The incident led to the long hunger strike of Irom Sharmila against AFSPA.
4. Mon Killings (Nagaland, 2021)
* Security forces mistakenly opened fire on civilians in Mon district, killing several people.
* Official inquiries acknowledged failures in intelligence and operational execution.
5. Oinam Operations (Manipur, 1987–1988)
* Human-rights organizations documented allegations of civilian abuses, unlawful killings, torture, and destruction of property during counter-insurgency operations.
* The allegations remain a subject of historical and legal debate.
6. Extra-Judicial Execution Victim Families Association (EEVFAM) Cases (Manipur)
* Hundreds of alleged fake encounter cases were brought before the Supreme Court of India.
* The Court ordered investigations into selected cases, emphasizing that even in insurgency-hit areas, the use of force must comply with the law.

The three innocent Kuki-Zo civilians who were injured during the attack on Leilon Vaiphei by the Tangkhul faction of NSCN-IM and its alleged associates, ZUF-Kamson, were subsequently transferred to the Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) by the Good Samaritan Indian Army, in accordance with Manipur Chief Minister Shri Yumnam Khemchand @YKhemchandSingh’s stated commitment to a peace initiative.

Regrettably, the Manipur government and RIMS authorities were unable to ensure their safety from the Meitei-Naga mob. Consequently, the Good Samaritan Indian Army and Assam Rifles were compelled to return them to Churachandpur District Hospital for further treatment.

In view of these circumstances, I wish to bring to your kind attention that coexistence with these two communities is no longer tenable. Should injured, innocent civilians remain unsafe and unable to receive treatment despite the Manipur government’s commitments, then the establishment of a Separate Administration in the form of a Union Territory with Legislature for the Kuki-Zo community must be declared without delay to ensure a peaceful resolution in the region.

Rest in Peace Mr. Lenminsang of Kolchung Village, who was present at Songkong Village, Henglep Sub-Division, Manipur, and was reportedly brutally killed by COBRA Team. It is alleged that he was forced to remove his clothes, made to wear an arms uniform, and then killed mercilessly.

We strongly condemn this inhuman act. It is further alleged that his dead body has not been handed over. Is this how the Government of India, Central Forces, and BJP leaders are treating the Kuki Community?

The peace-loving Kuki Community is under threat and attack by COBRA Team, Central Forces, BJP leaders, and the BJP Government.

We demand the arrest of those responsible, especially the personnel involved in the COBRA Team. We also condemn what we see as active support being extended to NSCN-IM, ZUF-K, Kamson Group, Myanmar Meitei Militants, Shan National Army, and Junta Military.

Justice must be delivered without delay.

📝..✍️......

~State-sponsored COBRA appears to have unleashed its first venom upon the Kuki people soon after its deployment in Manipur. Henglep area is by no means a disturbed areas that warrants such an operation by central forces.

Is this what the so-called COBRA has been sent to Manipur to carry out fake encounters against the Kuki community while conveniently ignoring areas plagued by insurgent and secessionist activities? Is this not an act of cowardice? Why display your sharp teeth against the wrong people and portray yourselves as brave experts in jungle warfare and guerrilla tactics?

Why not deploy to Ukhrul, Kamjong, Tamenglong, and to the disturbed areas of the Imphal Valley, which have long been infested with various militant and secessionist groups? Why target those who are comparatively harmless for the CF? Is this an attempt to project strength and bravery by victimizing the vulnerable.

No force entrusted with upholding the law should ever abuse its authority or turn its weapons against the harmless individual. Selective displays of force against vulnerable communities do not reflect courage; they expose moral bankruptcy and cowardice. True bravery lies in confronting genuine threats, not in intimidating those who are least able to defend themselves.

The Kuki people deserve justice, accountability, and equal protection under the law-not fear, intimidation, or the specter of extrajudicial violence.

#Manipur
A deeply troubling incident has been reported from the Songkong area of Henglep Sub-Division on 16 June 2026. According to local accounts,Indian Army 21 Para Commandos and 19 AR personnel allegedly engaged village volunteers stationed for community protection,leading to the death of Mr. Lenminsang,the son of the chief of Kolchung Village.

Reports further suggest that his body was removed from the scene, fueling widespread concern and suspicion regarding the circumstances surrounding his death.

Given the seriousness of these allegations, there must be a prompt and impartial inquiry to establish the facts. Any attempt to suppress the truth or misrepresent the incident would only deepen public mistrust. Those responsible, regardless of rank or position, must be held accountable under the law.
The people deserve answers.The family deserves justice.

Manipur : CONDEMNATION
Henglep, 17th June 2026

Letzamang Haokip
Manipur Legislative Assembly
57-Henglep (ST) Assembly Constituency

I strongly and unequivocally condemn the shocking killing of Lenminsang, S/o Lenkhogin Haokip, at the hands of joint security forces at North Songkong village, Henglep Sub-Division.

It is deeply disturbing and unacceptable that a civilian has lost his life at the hands of those entrusted with his protection. Such an incident strikes at the very foundation of public trust and raises serious concerns that cannot be ignored.

Adding to the gravity of the incident, eyewitnesses have alleged that, after he was shot, his clothes were removed and his lifeless body was taken away by the joint security forces. They further allege that, after his death, attempts were made to portray the incident as fake encounter. If these allegations are found to be true, it would constitute a grave abuse of authority and a serious violation of the rule of law. This is unacceptable and demands immediate attention. These allegations are extremely serious and warrant an immediate, impartial and transparent investigation.

The continued failure to return and retrieve the mortal remains of the deceased civilian has only compounded the pain and anguish of the bereaved family and the public. Every family has the right to perform the last rites of their loved one with dignity and respect.

I demand the immediate recovery and handover of the mortal remains to the family, a thorough judicial and independent inquiry into the incident, and stringent action against all those found responsible. Any attempt to conceal facts, tamper with evidence, or misrepresent the circumstances surrounding the death must be investigated and dealt with strictly in accordance with the law.

I extend my heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family and stand firmly with them in their pursuit of truth and justice.
