Women in India's northeastern state of Manipur attacked the house of the main suspect in a sexual assault case that has enraged the nation
The person had allegedly dragged two tribal women onto the streets in May and incited a mob to rape and parade them naked, police said on Friday.
"We request women to protest peacefully as there is intense unease. We understand their rage," he said. The assault was reported by the victims in May when the state witnessed intense ethnic clashes. The fighting was triggered by a court order that the government should consider extending special benefits enjoyed by the tribal Kuki people to the majority Meitei population as well.
"We want to know why police failed to take swift action when they knew that women were raped and paraded naked in Manipur," said Radhika Burman, a student in eastern city of Kolkata who is led a public demonstration on Thursday.
