The two women filed petitions in the Supreme Court against the centre and the Manipur government.
The Supreme Court today will hear the centre's request to transfer the case of two women being paraded naked in strife-torn Manipur to a different state.
The two women filed petitions in the Supreme Court against the centre and the Manipur government. The petitions request that the Supreme Court take suo motu action on the case and order a fair and impartial inquiry. The victims have also requested that their identities be protected.
The Supreme Court last week condemned the "deeply disturbing" video, stating that the visuals showed "gross constitutional failure". Chief Justice DY Chandrachud called on the government to take concrete steps to protect women in the region and to keep the court informed of their progress.
