Imphal: The Kuki-Zo Council moved to stop the fallout on Friday. They claimed their chairman, Henlianthang Thanglet, never meant to admit the community killed six Naga civilians. His words sparked a firestorm. People across the region viewed his earlier apology as a confession of guilt.
Spokesperson Ginza Vualzong issued a statement to set the record straight. He said Thanglet spoke only out of human decency. The bodies were found in Kuki-Zo territory. Thanglet felt a moral duty to offer comfort to the grieving families.
The council remains firm. No Kuki-Zo group sanctioned or supported these attacks. "This expression of regret must not, under any circumstances, be misconstrued as an admission, confession, or acknowledgment that the killings were perpetrated by the Kuki-Zo community," the statement declared.
Confusion began on June 25. Thanglet held a press conference. He used strong language about a mistake made in the heat of emotion. Now, the council wants an honest look at all the violence. They demand a fair investigation into every death. They claim peace requires equal justice for all sides, including Kuki-Zo victims of the ongoing conflict.
