Konyak Union Dimapur (KUD) has expressed disappointment over the contract work (beautification of Super Market area Dimapur), which was allegedly allotted to Ronika and Amos Ezung– the two accused who are out on bail in connection with the physical abuse of three minors at Namgalong Colony, Burma Camp Dimapur last year.
In a press release, Konyak Union Dimapur president Mosa Konyak and general secretary M Jeange Yanlem reminded that on October 31, 2022 it came to light how three Konyak minors, who were brought from Longwa village were physically and mentally tortured by Ronika and her accomplice Amos.
KUD said it had strongly opposed granting bail to the two accused, but the duo was released by the District Court in December 2022.
The union said the case which was very strong against them was still in the court with the hearing coming up in the month of July.
Even as Konyak people were still in the state of shock and disbelief, the union said contract work was allotted to the two accused for beautification of Dimapur city and to build Acupressure Park in Super Market area.
In this regard, KUD has appealed to the Development Authority of Nagaland to withdraw the contract work allotted to them till justice delivered by the court.
KUD also appealed to all the Nagas to stand with the Konyaks as they seek justice over what Ronika and Amos had done to their children.
While questioning as to how Ronika and Amos were allotted such project, the union wondered how people with such cruel mind of torturing innocent children would even have the heart to carry out anything positive for Dimapur city and the citizens of Dimapur.
Konyak Union Dimapur also pointed out that the victims were still in so much pain and turmoil and were yet to recover.
“The wound is still fresh and the people of Konyak are still in pain over what Ronika and Amos had done to our children..The children are still far from their mental and physical recovery,” KUD said.
