In November 1903 two Aos of Salunamang, while trading across the Dikhu between Noksen and Letam, were murdered by men of the Pelasi khel of Mazungjam. In the following month, the Chongpu khel of the same village carried off three mithan from British territory. Proposals fro dealing with these outrages have been submitted by the Chief Commissioner for the orders of the Government of India.
