Manipur governor pulls up DGP, says 'why no action in 2-month-old complaint by victims?'

Coming down heavily on the State Police regarding lack of action in the incident related to viral video, Governor said, "Today I called the DGP of the state, asking why no action was taken on the
complaint by the police. I have directed the DGP to take immediate steps to book the perpetrators of this heinous crime and award exemplary punishment as per law,"

The Manipur governor said "I have also asked the DGP to take action against the Police officials of the station where the complaint of this incident was lodged, for not taking any action," she said while asking the DGP to act against erring police officials.

"Never in future, any person should have the courage to commit these types of crimes against
women," she added.

A video of the two-month-old incident had gone viral evoking strong sharp reactions from various political parties and triggering outrage.

Meanwhile, Manipur Governor met Director General of Police Rajiv Singh at Raj Bhavan in Imphal
and inquired about the Manipur viral video case and the progress of the investigation in the case.

"The Governor also asked the DGP for giving special protection to the victims, if required," Raj
Bhawan stated.
