One of the pastors who were killed in an ambush by the Zeliangrong United Front (ZUF) was the youngest son of the revered missionary Pu Pakho Sithlou and his mother was a Rongmei herself.

Pu Pakho was one of the pioneers who championed the Christian cause among the Rongmei tribe.

If anyone asks for more proof, there are a multitude of articles that are available on the internet regarding his contributions and the validity if my claims. I would encourage all to read on them.

I write this with a heavy heart and tear stained eyes since I cannot imagine that such a disgusting act of violence and barbarism was showcased by our so called Naga brothers in Manipur.

All the candle light vigils, slogans and singing hymns won’t change the fact that you have the blood on the Lord’s pastors on your hands.

If anyone wishes to read more on the shameful incident I’ve inserted an excerpt from a news article but please read more from the sources on the second slide:

At least three people were shot dead and several others injured after unidentified armed men ambushed their vehicles in Manipur's Kangpokpi district on Wednesday, triggering an immediate blockade along National Highway-2 and heightened tension in the region.
The victims were three church leaders belonging to the Thadou Baptist Association (TBA), including former Manipur Baptist Convention (MBC) General Secretary Rev. V Sitlhou. The two others were identified as Rev. V Kaigoulun and Pastor Paogoulen.

According to reports, the victims were travelling in two vehicles and were returning to Kangpokpi from Churachandpur district after attending a TBA Conference in Lamka when they were attacked midway.

KIM said that Rev. V Sitlhou had recently participated in peace initiatives with the Nagaland Joint Christian Forum (NJCF) in Kohima aimed at fostering reconciliation and mutual understanding between communities

In my opinion, rain brings out the best of the hills.
