Respected Sir,

 

With due respect and urgency, we, the NORTH EAST SUPPORT CENTRE & HELPLINE (NESCH), is writing to you that to take immediate action against the landlord and the locals who racially abused and physically assaulted some Northeast Indians in Sikendarpur on the night of 29^th March 2014.

 

On 29^th March 2014 at around 10.34pm at Sikanderpur, a landlord (name and his house number unknown) along with some locals mercilessly and physically assaulted his tenant one Northeast boy inside his rented room. This incident occurred at the house/building of this landlord. The boy was his tenant and did not involve in any incident. Thereafter the landlord and the locals rampantly beat up the Northeast whoever they saw in the locality. They beat with iron rods and sticks, and they even stoned upon the innocent Northeast.

 

Some 30-40 locals came out with iron rods, hockey sticks and started smashing and hitting all the Northeast people in Sikendapur whosoever they find in the street/locality. This group of locals was led by one landlord.

 

The locals frantically move around searching the Northeast people to beat up or kill. They shouted “MANIPURI WALO KO MARO!, CHINKI KO BHAGOA, JUNGLI WALA”.

 

The moment we received the information, we, the peace-loving leaders of NESC HELPLINE inquired the problem. Unfortunately we were being threatened by the locals who didn’t allowed us to say anything and they started hitting us with their handheld weapons like iron rods, hockey sticks, stones and others.

 

At the very beginning of the incident, we dialed 100 and called Gurgaon Police, but they did not entertain our distress calls. They simply hang up the phone. If the Police were alert and acts promptly respond to our helpless calls, such incident would not happen. We were deeply hurt by the irresponsibility of the police.

 

North East Support Centre & Helpline today met some of the victims in Sikendarpur, Gurgaon.

 

List of the innocent Northeast mercilessly beaten and injured were given as follows:

1.  Mr Mimin (Injured on his head)

2.  Mr Rinmaso Huishuwo (Injured his left eye)

3.  Mr Lucas Luiram (Injured his hands and back)

4. Mr Kaan Khamrang (Injured his face and hands)

5. Mr Mereiyar Keishing (injured his head and back)

6. Mr Seigoulal Kipgen (He was beaten by his own landlord accompanied by a group of locals inside his rented room. He was injured on his back. He was beaten with wooden sticks.)

The locals took advantage of the incident. The locals grabbed and forcibly took away the mobiles phones from the hands of our Northeast people who were present during the incident. Now we are afraid that they might misuse those phone numbers. The names below are those whose phones had been snatched:-

 

1. Mr Mimin, Sony Xperia, Mob No. 9873844734 (approx. Rs 15,000 only)

 

2. Mr Kaan Khamrang, Karbon, Mob No. 9560121152 (approx. Rs 7,000 only)

 

3. Mr Rinmaso Huishuwo, Spice, Mob No. 9711347045 (approx. Rs 8,000). His mobile phone was smashed and completely damaged by the locals while he was brutally beaten up.

 

Now we the Northeast people living in Gurgaon were afraid of back lashing by the locals at any time.

 

Many times in the past and till today, we have been racially abused, discriminated and assaulted by the locals without our faults. Therefore, we kindly request you to take immediate legal action under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act 1989. And also please kindly arrest the landlord and his accomplices immediately. We look forward to your prompt action. Thanking You.

 

In the Service of Our North East Brothers and Sisters,
