Zakapa

Zakapa, also known as Jacopa, was a Lushai chieftain of the Fanai clan and ruled the Vanlaiphai villages in present-day southern Mizoram.

C.S Murray was assigned as the political officer of the South Lushai Hills and instructed to disarm all of the tribes with their weapons and quell any resistance.

[4] Murray had stationed troops around Khawhri and warned Zakapa and Lalthuama of dangerous consequences.

Murray escaped the settlement and entered a hilly stream hence abandoning his men, money, ammunition and supplies.

[5][6] As a result of the hostilities, Major Hutchinson captured Zakapa's subordinate chiefs and tortured the women of his settlement for his whereabouts.

This was uncovered in court and Murray was demoted and transferred out of the Lushai Hills on the orders of the Government of Bengal.
