text: 15. Four men of Saban, a Sarkari Naga village, were found to have wrongfully confined a Naga of Kutung village, beyond the Inner Line, for six months. The villagers were fined Rs. 100, of which Rs. 50 was paid to the Captive as compensation. Some Rangpang Nagas were caught red-handed while thieving iron materials from the railway in the vicinity of the Ledo colliery and were punished. With these exceptions the conduct of the Nagas continued to be satisfactory.
