In a significant development, all four accused involved in the Manipur viral video case, which exposed the appalling mistreatment of two women from the Kuki-Zomi community, have been sent to 11-day police custody. The disturbing video, which surfaced on July 19, depicted the victims being paraded naked and subjected to sexual assault in the state.

The video’s emergence has sparked outrage and demands for justice from various quarters.
With the accused now in police custody, authorities are actively investigating the case to bring those responsible to justice and shed light on the circumstances surrounding this heinous act of violence.

As the investigation unfolds, the public’s attention remains firmly focused on the pursuit of justice and ensuring that such atrocities never occur again in the state of Manipur.
