The Kuki-Zo Council (KZC) has issued a strong condemnation of a bombing incident at Gamnomphai village near the Seitol area of Churachandpur district, which occurred early in the morning today, injuring several individuals. The KZC described the violent act as deeply upsetting, irresponsible, and a serious threat to peace, public safety, and communal harmony. The explosion took place in the buffer zone established by government security forces, aimed at preventing conflict and safeguarding civilian lives. KZC emphasized the necessity of respecting this neutral area, stating that violations weaken the efforts of security forces and increase fear and mistrust among the public. Critically, KZC noted the unfortunate timing of this incident, occurring during the Christmas-New Year festivities, a period traditionally associated with peace and reflection, thus causing panic and insecurity among innocent civilians. The council has called for a thorough and impartial investigation to apprehend those responsible for the bombing and urged security forces to enhance vigilance around buffer zones to prevent future occurrences.
