Buarchip : , Aug 4 (IANS) Lalthanpuii left behind her entire crop of areca nuts after Assam police and villagers stormed her settlement near here on July 10.
That was almost a fortnight before the bloody clash between Assam and Mizoram police at Vairengte, which left seven, including six Assam policemen dead and more than 60 injured on both sides. Hundred policemen and several hundreds of Assam villagers attacked our village. They pushed all Mizos out, took away our areca nuts. Later they drained the water in our ponds and took away all our fish, said Lathanpuii, tears in her eyes.
