Dimapur Ao Youth body: Mon killings expose ‘Army’s lack of professionalism’

The Dimapur Ao Youth Organization (DAYO) has expressed shock and anguish at the death of 13 innocent civilians at the hands of Indian paramilitary forces. DAYO expressed solidarity with “our Konyak brethren” and said it considered this act “as an act of intimidation against the whole of Nagas.”

DAYO said calling the ambush “intelligence failure is another level of insensitivity and insult to the priceless human lives lost for no fault of theirs.”

This unwarranted episode exposed the army’s lack of professionalism, deviant orientation, and misuse of law, DAYO said.
