Taking serious note of one individual called Ws Molun who claimed to be a Kuki and chief of an Anal village called Motha, the Anal Naga Tangpi (ANTA) has stated that the said individual was excommunicated by his own clan and was a refugee. That, even the Anal Naga Chief’s Association does not recognise his chiefship nor the village he claims, Motha.
In a press note on Friday, signed by its president PS Monihring and general secretary TS Larni, ANTA said the association took cognizance of the recent post regarding one individual called Ws Molun, who claimed to be Kuki and took a conclusive declaration following an emergency meeting held on Friday.
Following the meeting, ANTA stated that the said individual Ws Molun was excommunicated by his own clan and the Anal Tribe in 2008 and he allegedly fled to Moreh Block and took refuge there. Since then, he has been a fugitive, ANTA stated.
ANTA also claimed that the association is not aware of any village called Motha in Moreh Block. “He is a self-styled chief, illegally occupying the land belonging to Thangbung Minou Anal Naga village. The Anal Naga Chief’s Association also does not recognise his chiefship nor the said village”, ANTA added.
The apex body of the Anal Naga tribe also stated that the signature appended in the document related is without the knowledge or endorsement of the Anal Tribe.
The Anal Naga Tribe is Naga, and will always remain so. This fact needs no further clarification, ANTA reiterated.
ANTA stated that Ws Molun acted in his individual capacity, without any knowledge or consent of the tribe. He stands disowned by the Anal Naga Tribe and he is solely responsible for his own actions, the association said.
