ITANAGAR, Nov 19: Demanding justice for late Techi Meena Lishi and her unborn child in unison, thousands of people including students, youths, student organizations, women welfare associations and common people today walked together in a candlelight march which started from the Yupia-Itanagar-Naharlagun tri-junction and culminated at A Sector, Naharlagun.
Participating in the march, President, Arunachal Pradesh Women’s Welfare Society (APWWS) Gumri Ringu said that only the arrest of culprits would not be enough and a free and fair investigation is necessary to ensure their exemplary punishments. “We appealed to the authority to arrest the lover of culprit Roni Lishi who might be involved in the incident. Investigation authority should impose the relevant section of the IPC against her,” Ringu asserted.
Condemning the incident, President of Nyishi Nyem Achem, Khyoda Maryam Neelam urged the authority not to give bail to the prime accused Lishi Roni. “Along with Roni all the people involved in the heinous crime should be given exemplary punishment,” he added, assuring cooperation to the family members of the deceased.                ....
