The GNF further said: “Any group that resorts to Naga-on-Naga violence and murder is by those very acts an enemy of the people and of the Naga cause.”
“…taking away the right of our own people to live, is absurd. It is barbaric, inhuman and morally repugnant by the standards of any civilised society,” the GNF added.
