Shillong, June 28: The Khasi Hills Autonomous District Council (KHADC) has decided to give two weeks’ time to the Syiem of Hima Nongspung to furnish documents related to financial matters of the chiefdom.
The decision was taken after the first hearing held here on Friday following the complaints filed by the Sordar of Mawar Umsohbar, Killing Rani and others against the Syiem which include the alleged appointment of headmen without the consent of the residents.
Council’s deputy chief executive member, Pynïaid Sing Syiem told reporters that the Syiem of Hima Nongspung Patrick Syiemïong through his counsel had sought four weeks’ time to furnish documents.
“However, we have decided not to grant the request and instead directed the Syiem to submit all financial related documents within two weeks,†Syiem said.
