[NYPOST] An angry mob of women in northeast India attacked the home of a main suspect in the gang rape of two minority women
| ...the majority in this case are Meitei, who are mostly Hindus and live in and around the city of Imphal, while the minority are the mainly Christian Kuki who live in the surrounding hills. The issue is that the Meirei want to be treated like another minority in order to get government set-asides, too. Apparently shame and raping Kuki womenfolk after beating and murdering their men is the way the Meitei have chosen to achieve this... |
in May which has enraged the country.
The Dire Revenge attack on Friday in Manipur was in response to a video that went viral on social media this week that showed two women, aged 19 and 21, being stripped naked and paraded through a street two months ago.
The victims were part of a larger group running from a village in the Kangpokpi district as it was burned by a mob of 800 to 1,000 people.
Police said the man is believed to have dragged the two tribal women onto the street and incited the mob to rape them and march them through the community.
"Local women pelted stones and burnt some parts of the house belonging to the prime accused in a village," said Hemant Pandey, a senior police official in the state capital Imphal, confirmed Friday.
"We request women to protest peacefully as there is intense unease. We understand their rage."
Manipur Police Makes 6th Arrest In Connection With Parading Of Two Women
[OneIndia] Manipur Police has arrested a sixth person in connection with the May 4 parading of two tribal women in Kangpokpi district of the state, officials said on Saturday.
The two women are alleged to have been sexually assaulted before being set free by a mob. A 26-second video of the incident surfaced on Wednesday.
Police said the arrested person is a juvenile. Police had made the first arrest on Thursday, a day after a 26-second video of the horrific incident surfaced on July 19. Three more arrests were made later that day. The fifth accused, 19-year-old youth, was arrested on Saturday.
The State Police is making an all-out effort to arrest the remaining culprits by conducting raids at many suspected hideouts.
It said that a total of 125 checkpoints were installed in different districts as security measures.
On Thursday, a man who was part of the mob that paraded the women at B. Phainom village and was seen dragging one of them was among four people who were arrested as the incident drew widespread condemnation. These four people were remanded to 11-day police custody on Friday, police said.
More than 160 people have bit the dust, and several have been injured since ethnic violence broke out in the state on May 3, when a 'Tribal Solidarity March' was organised in the hill districts to protest against the Meitei community's demand for Scheduled Tribe (ST) status.
Meiteis account for about 53 per cent of Manipur's population and live mostly in the Imphal Valley, while tribals, which include Nagas and Kukis, constitute 40 per cent and reside mostly in the hill districts.
Manipur Horror: 2 More Young Women Allegedly Raped and Murdered On The Same Day
[OneIndia] On the same day that two tribal women in Manipur were subjected to a horrifying incident involving stripping, parading, and alleged gang rape by a mob, another tragic incident unfolded in the state's Kangpokpi district. This comes a day after chief minister and BJP leader Biren Singh conceded that 'hundreds' of instances similar to that portrayed in a chilling video had taken place in the state since May 3.
Two young women, aged 21 and 24, who were employed at a car wash in the Konung Mamang area of Imphal East district, around 40 kilometers away from the site of the previous incident, became victims of brutal assault and murder amidst the ongoing wave of ethnic violence that continues to grip the region.
According to reports, a large group of men, accompanied by some women, attacked the two women working at the car wash. A male co-worker, who witnessed the horrifying incident, revealed that the women in the mob incited the men to sexually assault the victims inside a room.
As per the account provided by a cousin of the younger victim, more than 100 Meitei men and women conducted a search for the two women on May 4. The search led them to discover the victims inside a room at the car wash.
