The Zhavame Women Society (ZWS) vehemently condemned the heinous crime of domestic violence meted upon one of its members by her husband, Tozo (Ato) Therie of Pholami village on the night of July 26, 2023 at the residence of the wife’s parents, Pfütsero.
In a condemnation note, Zhavame Women Society stated that the perpetrator came home in an inebriated state and taking hold of a ‘dao’ started attacking the wife leading to severe injuries.
ZWS said that on shouting for help, the neighbours came rushing to find her in a pool of blood and she was immediately rushed to the hospital where she is currently being treated.
ZWS stated that such gruesome crime has no place in the Naga society and cannot be justified in any way.
The society further urged the law enforcing authorities to award exemplary punishment to the perpetrator while calling upon all sections of the society to condemn the barbaric act.
