TL;DR Summary

A viral video showing the sexual assault of two women in Manipur, India, has sparked outrage and protest. The video, filmed on May 4, depicts men from the Meitei group parading two Kuki women naked through a crowd of clothed men who assaulted them. The victims allege that the police were complicit in the attack, as they were apprehended by the police but later intercepted by a mob. The ongoing conflict between the Meitei and Kuki groups in Manipur has resulted in violence, displacement, and internet outages. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has condemned the assaults, but previous rhetoric from his party members has stoked ethnic tensions in the region.
