IMPHAL, July 10: The Revolutionary People’s Front (RPF) has today said in a press release that the increase in violence and crimes against woman has today reached an alarming rate in Manipur. Such crimes are today witnessed in all parts of the state and it seems that control over the society has gone haywire, it said.
Quoting news reports and data from the National Crimes Records Bureau in India, the statement continued that the failure to punish individuals involved in crimes against women has only encouraged them further. The fact that such a trend has reached Manipur is not so surprising, it said adding that women of the Manipuri society will continue to suffer from such violence if Manipur continues to be under India.
The statement has further said that the practice of dowry (awunpot) which was not prevalent in the earlier times is today spread throughout Manipur.
