Angry townies in India burned army vehicles in kick after further than a dozen people were killed by dogfaces who inaptly believed some of them were zealots in the country’s remote northeast region along the border with Myanmar, officers said on Sunday.

Nagaland state’s top-tagged sanctioned Neiphiu Rio ordered an inquiry into the killings, which passed on Saturday, and he twittered, “ The unfortunate incident leading to the payoff of civilians at Oting is largely condemnable.”

The unfortunate incident leading to killing of civilians at Oting, Mon is highly condemnable.Condolences to the bereaved families & speedy recovery of those injured. High level SIT will investigate & justice delivered as per the law of the land.Appeal for peace from all sections

— Neiphiu Rio (@Neiphiu_Rio) December 5, 2021

An army officer said the dogfaces fired at a truck after entering intelligence about a movement of mutineers in the area and killed six people.

As irate townies burned two army vehicles, the dogfaces fired at them, killing nine further people, the officer said on condition of obscurity as he wasn’t authorized to talk to journalists. Before the officer had said seven protesters were killed.

One dogface was also killed in the clash with protesters, he said.

An Indian army statement said it “ deeply rued” the incident and its fate, adding that “ the cause of the unfortunate loss of lives is being delved at the loftiest position and applicable action will be taken as per the course of law.”

” Security forces have suffered severe injuries in the incident, including one dogface who succumbed to the injuries,” it added.

The statement said, “ believable intelligence” on insurrectionary movements indicated that a “ specific operation was planned” in the Mon quarter in Nagaland.

Mutineers frequently cross into Myanmar after attacking Indian government forces in a remote areas.

Nyamtow Konyak, an original community leader, said those killed were coal miners.

India’s Home Minister Amit Shah expressed anguish over the “ unfortunate incident” and said the state government will probe the killings.

Anguished over an unfortunate incident in Nagaland’s Oting, Mon. I express my deepest condolences to the families of those who have lost their lives. A high-level SIT constituted by the State govt will thoroughly probe this incident to ensure justice to the bereaved families.

The army officer said the dogfaces had laid an ambush for a week following intelligence that mutineers were planning to attack dogfaces in the area, 400 kilometers (250 country miles) east of Gauhati, the capital of Assam state.

Government forces are battling dozens of ethnical insurrectionary groups in India’s remote northeast whose demands range from independent motherlands to maximum autonomy within India.
