PTI | June 4, 2010



After camping on the Nagaland-Manipur border for nearly a month despite stiff opposition from the Manipur government, NSCN(IM) General Secretary Th Muivah today left Visema village.

Nagaland police escorted Muivah and his entourage which headed towards Pfutsero, Nagaland's highest altitude town, 70 km away by road in Phek district this morning on a 'peace mission', NSCN(IM) sources said.

He will be staying at the Pfutsero mission compound of the Chakhesang Baptist church council and hold consultative meetings with people on the ongoing Naga peace process in the next few days, the sources said.

The last peace talks with the Centre had been held on June 1 for the first time in Nagaland.

Muivah at a farewell meeting yesterday thanked the villagers for their warm hospitality to him and NSCN(IM) members.

Muviah was camping in the village since May 3 to visit his native Somdal village in Ukhrul district, a move opposed by the Manipur government.
