Imphal, July 22: The Manipur Police on Saturday arrested another person in connection with the sexual assault of two Kuki women that took place on May 4, 2023.

The person has been identified as Yumlembam Nungsithoi Metei.

This was the fifth arrest in connection with the case.

According to police, they are making all-out efforts to arrest the remaining accused persons and are conducting raids at suspected hideouts.

On Thursday, a group of agitated women burnt the home of Huirem Herodas Meitei, the main accused in the case.

On July 19, a video showing two Kuki women being paraded naked by a mob in the Kangpokpi district was widely shared on social media.

Three women, including the two who were seen in the video, were sexually assaulted in B Phainom village of Kangpokpi district on May 4, a day after clashes erupted between Meitei and Kuki communities.

“Till now, five accused have been arrested in connection with the case. We are conducting raids to arrest others who were involved in the crime,” said a police officer.
