Itanagar: Lok Sabha member from Arunachal Pradesh Takam Sanjoy today demanded immediate arrest and trial of culprits involved in murder of a student from the state in New Delhi.
Nido Tania, son of Arunachal Pradesh Health and Family Welfare Parliamentary Secretary Nido Pavitra has reportedly been beaten to death in Lagpat Nagar area of South Delhi.
“Even after 48-hours of the incident the police failed to arrest the culprits involved in the crime, which exposed the discriminatory attitude of the people from mainland India towards the people of North East,” Sanjoy said.
“This is not a new incident.... several such incidents have been reported earlier where students of NE are victimised and we have taken adequate steps to sensitize the people ... Even I raised the issue several times in the parliaments,” Sanjoy said while condemning the incident.
He said, he was shocked to learn that the Lajpat Nagar police delayed in registering the FIR and even did not arrest the culprits.
