In yet another horrific video emerging from Manipur, the body of a tribal man is seen being set on fire in a trench. A police official said the video appeared to be from early May and that they were investigating the case.
The seven-second video, marked as “Kuki”, was shared on several WhatsApp groups in Manipur on October 8. It shows a man, in a black T-shirt and camouflage trousers, lying in a trench. The face has been bludgeoned and the body is on fire. It is not clear if the man was burnt alive.
A representative of a Kuki-Zo organisation said they were trying to ascertain the identity of the person as during the violence, around five or six people from the community were said to have been burnt alive.
