Indigenous Tribal Leaders’ Forum (ITLF)

Conglomerate of Recognised Tribes in Lamka, Outer Manipur

File No: ITLF-PR-202335 Wednesday, 19th July 2023

CONDEMNATION

Two-and-a-half-months into the ethnic conflict in Manipur, evidence of atrocities committed against
Kuki-Zo tribals continue to surface. A video which went viral today shows a large Meitei mob parading two
Kuki-Zo tribal women naked toward a paddy field to be gang-raped.

The despicable scene, which happened on May 4 in Kangpokpi district, shows the men constantly molesting
the helpless women, who cry and plead with their captors.

The gangrape of the women in B. Phainom village happened after the village was burnt down and two men
– one middle-aged and another a teenager – were brutally beaten to death by the mob.

The horrifying ordeal suffered by these innocent women is amplified by the perpetrators’ decision to share
the video, which shows the identity of the victims, on social media.

The Indigenous Tribal Leaders’ Forum vehemently condemns the sickening act and demands that the
central and state governments, National Commission for Women, and National Commission for Scheduled
Tribes to take cognizance of the offense and take all necessary measures to bring justice to the culprits..
