Imphal, June 4:
Youth’s Forum for Protection of Human Rights (YFPHR) has expressed strong condemnation to the inhumane and barbaric act of some of the private run de-addiction and rehabilitation centres in Manipur as a result many have lost their precious lives.
“In several instances we have been observing the over smartness of the staffs of the deaddiction centre in which they threatened the guardians of the users friends so as the guardians are compelled to keep them at the centres. We also learn that some of the drug peddlers, youth clubs, Meira paibi, police etc are engaged with these centres to forcefully make the people enrolled in these privately run centre just to make money out of it which is a very unfortunate and need an urgent attention to conduct strict monitoring from the side of the government”, a statement by YFPHR.
“We appreciate the initiative, however, such inhumane conduct and misusing the ethics of the institution cannot be tolerated though the initiative is good”, the statement added.
The YFPHR appealed the government to strictly monitor the day to day mushrooming de-addiction centres and rehabilitation centre in Manipur and cancelled the registration whichever found inappropriate and make liable as per the rule of law.
It also appealed to the Director General of Police to book the perpetrators and punish them according to the rule of law in the best interest of public.
