Manipur Case News Today

Photos of the bodies of the two students, who have been missing since July, went viral on social media on Monday.

Even as Manipur's BJP government has publicised a 'war on drugs', TNM has found that heroin has gotten cheaper and more popular in the state with high school students increasingly prone to drug addiction.

Solicitor General Tushar Mehta told the Supreme Court bench that 27 Manipur violence-related cases have been transferred to the CBI.

The statement made in the July-August edition of the insurgent group's mouthpiece Nagalim Voice also called the proposed map of a Kuki-administered territory as "unrealistic".

Five years ago, Brinda Thounaojam made the biggest drug-related arrest in Manipur history. Today, the ex-cop is one of the most vocal critics of Chief Minister Biren Singh’s policies in the midst of the ongoing ethnic conflict.

At a BJP-run relief camp for pregnant Meitei women, many women are giving birth before moving on to other camps, separated from families and stuck in uncertainty as the violence in Manipur continues.

Amid the Kuki-Meitei conflict in Manipur, sections from both the warring sides have gone out of their way to keep a few of the inter-community couples safe. TNM met such inter-community couples at different places in Manipur.

From treating rifle bullet injuries to navigating the cracks between warring communities, Manipur's doctors share their experiences of the unrest in the state.

Like the Meira Paibis, the women's wing of the Indigenous Tribal Leaders Forum (ITLF) has also taken up the role of vigilantes in territories where the Kukis are dominant.

Another horrific case of sexual assault during the ethnic clashes in Manipur in early May has come to light, after the survivor - who has been living in a relief camp - filed a police case. More and more women in Manipur are coming to the police.
