IMPHAL, Oct 4: Reacting to the statement issued by Khaikam Touthang, KNO/KLA has described him and his followers as prodigal sons rebelling against their own leaders and cadres.
In a statement, C-in-C of the outfit T Stephen Kuki said since the formation of KNO/KLA T Goulen Doungel alias T Stephen Kuki was the C-in-C while Khaikam Touthang was his deputy. Unfortunately, Khaikam Touthang killed his C-in-C and ran away with Rs 20 lakhs which he shared with some KNA leaders, and thus the problem and internal conflict began to haunt the organisation.
However, with the initiatives of some advisors, Khaikam and his colleagues were forgiven in order to bring unity and strengthen the organisation. Consequently Thanglenlal alias T Stephen Kuki was made the C-in-C and Khaikam Touthang was given his former post. But taking advantage of the good gesture, he again took Rs 6 lakhs and couped organisation arms on August 11, 2008 at Aigejang village with the help of KNA Wing VI and then he merged with KNA, Step-hen said, adding that all the relevant files and records are with him.
Asserting that Armstrong Gangte, Max Kuki and MC Doungel are true KNO/KLA cadres working for the cause of Kuki community, Stephen said the followers of Khaikham Touthang would be forgiven if they mend their character and return to the parent organisation.
