TL;DR Summary

A video showing two women being paraded naked by a mob in the violence-hit state of Manipur, India, has sparked outrage. The police have opened a case of gang rape and arrested a man, with more arrests expected. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has condemned the incident, stating that "no guilty will be spared." Deadly violence between the Meitei and Kuki tribal communities has resulted in over 130 deaths and 60,000 displacements. The assault on the women took place on 4 May, but the video went viral on social media recently. The federal government has asked social media companies to delete the video.
