The Manipur police have so far arrested six people including a juvenile after a horrific video of assault of two women surfaced on social media. The victims were alleged to have been sexually assaulted before they were let off by the mob. The ethnic violence which broke out in the state on May 3 has claimed more than 160 lives and left dozens injured.
