AIZAWL: Mizoram chief minister Zoramthanga has condemned the incident of two Kuki women in Manipur being paraded naked by a mob of unruly Meitei men.

“I was really shocked and shaken to see the video that goes viral. The shocking video of the sexual assault of our two Vaiphei women in Manipur is brutal, merciless, heinous, despicable and complete inhuman! The whole region needs a permanent solution for the great problem Manipur is having,” said Mizoram CM Zoramthanga.

“Many lives have been lost, bloodshed all over, physical torture and the victims are looking for refuge wherever possible. With no iota of doubt, those victims are my kith and kin, my own blood and should we quieten the situation by just being silent? I don’t think so,” said Mizoram CM Zoramthanga.

He added: “Silence is not an option.”

The shocking incident took place at Kangpokpi district of Manipur on May 4.
