    The sexual assault of a Kuki mother and daughter duo, who were stripped naked and paraded while being groped and molested by a mob of men in Manipur, is the latest example of that.

    The video footage showing the women weeping, wincing in pain and begging their attackers to show some mercy is disturbing to watch.

    The fact that the first arrest has been made only after the outrage in the case that happened 78 days ago and was reported to the police more than two months back doesn’t inspire much confidence in the administration - more so since many of the men are clearly identifiable in the footage.

    […]

    “The gang rape of the women happened after the village was burnt down and two men - one middle-aged and another a teenager - were beaten to death by the mob,” the ITLF said.

    Police said that the incident took place on 4 May and that a case of abduction and gang rape and murder had been registered in Thoubal district.

    What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuck?!

      Initial reporting also mentioned that the mob killed the father and brother of the younger woman (didnt state in it that the older woman was the mother).

      This video is after the mob abducted them from police custody as they were trying to flee.

        So, Indian Police is beyond useless. This is how you start revolts and no one will root for the state.

          There was an allegation that the police handed over the women to the mob.

          So possibly more than just useless, in this case.
