As two-month-old visuals of two Kuki women in Manipur’s Thoubal district being paraded naked went viral on July 19, political leaders expressed outrage on social media platforms
In a late night tweet, Union Minister for Women and Child Development Smriti Irani said she had spoken to Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh about the video.
“The horrific video of sexual assault of 2 women emanating from Manipur is condemnable and downright inhuman. Spoke to CM @NBirenSingh ji who has informed me that investigation is currently underway & assured that no effort will be spared to bring perpetrators to justice,” tweeted Ms. Irani.
