Manipur has become the center of attention for Indian politics as two ethnic communities in and around the Imphal valley engage in violence.
In the last three videos, we explore how the violence between Meitei and Kuki groups began and unfolded. We also delved into the role of government and the army. In this video, we will focus on the viral video of the naked Kuki women.
After internet service was restored in Manipur, a video of two Kuki women emerged, which immediately went viral. The video that went viral showed two Kuki women being paraded naked, slapped, and being sexually assaulted. According to sources, the men assaulting the women were from the Meitei group. The incident happened two months before the video went viral.
People did not have access to various online platforms due to the internet shutdown.
The two women were trying to flee the mob when they were forcibly dragged out. The two women, one in her forties and the other in her twenties had to face public humiliation. The younger Kuki woman was gang raped. When one of the victim’s father and brother tried to protect the woman from being raped, they were killed.
Another similar incident of Kuki women being raped and killed within an hour occurred in Imphal. An article published on Hindustan Time reads:
“Not only did the two incidents happen on the same day within an hour of each other, the victims hailed from the same community (Kuki) as did the perpetrators (Meitei), according to the FIRs filed in both cases. And just like in the case of the brutal sexual assault, where the first arrests happened only after a shocking 30-second video of the incident went viral on Wednesday, there have been no arrests in the Imphal case, according to police officers aware of the matter.
The two women who were allegedly raped and killed in Imphal were siblings who worked as caretakers at a carwash in the city, said the FIR filed by the victims’ father. The women, aged 21 and 24, were at a rented house when a mob entered their room and raped them before killing them, the FIR added.”
Speaking to Hindustan, the victim’s father said, “My elder daughter’s friend is a Meitei. We are Kukis. My elder daughter’s friend told us that a mob of men and women had entered their house and murdered them. I went to the morgue with a police officer. There, the doctor said that my daughters were raped and murdered. I filed a complaint of rape and murder at the police station. Police have not informed me why they have not taken any action. They said they have preserved the bodies for investigation.”
