"The collection, named The Curious Collector Sale, included the 19th-century horned human skull from the Naga, listed with a price of up to 4,000."
"After condemnation from groups, including the Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR) which called it an act of dehumanisation and colonial violence, the auction house removed the items from sale."
"Lord Paul Boateng, who is also honorary president of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Africa, told The Independent that the initially proposed sale was outrageous and grossly disrespectful."
