Rights groups have demanded swift action against the perpetrators of sexual assault in Manipur and speedy justice for two Kuki women paraded naked by a mob.
The groups said they were aghast by a video clip showing a large group of men parading two women stripped naked and molesting them while dragging them toward a paddy field. The incident reportedly took place on May 4.
“The torture and looting of the dignity of women in broad daylight in such a grotesque manner cannot be accepted or tolerated in any civilised society. We condemn the incident in the strongest possible term and demand swift action from the State government,” Dilip Chakma of the New Delhi-based Indigenous Rights Advocacy Centre said on Thursday.
