Massive protests rocked the Imphal valley, Thoubal, Kakching and Bishnupur after another case of gang-rape in Churachandpur on May 3 came to the fore.
Sit-in demonstrations were held at multiple sites in Imphal demanding the government nab the culprits and ensure justice for the victim.
The protesters also questioned why Chief Minister N Biren Singh is silent on the matter.
It may be mentioned here that the case came to the fore after the survivor, who has been living in a relief camp, filed a police complaint on August 9.
The victim approached the police in Manipur’s Bishnupur district stating that she was sexually assaulted on May 3 in Churachandpur district.
Following the complaint, a Zero FIR (an FIR that can be registered by any police station, irrespective of jurisdiction, when it receives a complaint regarding a cognisable offence) was registered at the Bishnupur police station and the case was transferred to Churachandpur police station for further probe.
According to the FIR, the 37-year-old married woman was gang raped at Khumujamba Meitei Leikai in Churachandpur district by unidentified men.
