Village elders and a radical Meitei group reportedly made efforts to get the video of two women being paraded naked in Manipur's Thoubal district deleted before it went viral.
The Indian Express has reported that Yumlembam Jiban, the 18-year-old who had shot the video, was asked to delete it from his phone by the locals.
Jiban is one of the seven people who have been arrested by the Manipur police in connection with the case
