Imphal, Jan 8: A Naga woman was allegedly assaulted by a group of Kukis in broad daylight at K. Lungwiram village, Manipur, sparking tension among the local community.

According to reports, the incident occurred on January 7 while the victim was working on her land. She was reportedly attacked by a gang, resulting in severe injuries and outrage within the Naga community.

The Foothill Naga Joint Action Committee (FNJAC) condemned the assault, describing it as “a calculated attack and molestation” that is not only a violation of an individual but also “a direct challenge to the identity and dignity of the Naga people as a whole.”

The FNJAC has demanded the immediate arrest of the perpetrators and a formal apology from Kuki community leaders. The committee issued a 48-hour ultimatum, warning of “appropriate measures” if their demands are not met. They also stated that Kuki leaders would be held accountable for any escalation of violence stemming from the incident.
