Condemn Women Police, Imphal Police for not able to arrest a rape accused
16th December, 2019
Youth Forum for Protection of Human Rights (YFPHR) strongly condemn the Women Police, Imphal Police Station for not able to arrest a rape accused who raped a 20 years old Girl on the 1st October, 2019.
Till date the WPS failed to arrest the person which is very suspicious in nature and we fear some foul play behind it in nexus with the accused person.
The incident took place on the 1st of October, 2019 in one of the Hotel located at North AOC, Imphal. The incident happened to be framed with one of the lady friend of the victim who introduced her to the accused in the name of providing her job.
With regard to this matter the DGP have been communicated on the 2nd of December, 2019, however, the accused is yet to be arrested till date which is of serious concern and we have a deep fear of whether the Criminal Justice System is functioning or not.
We would like to re-appeal the Police Department and the Concern Minister to kindly arrest the person and punish the accused person according to the rule of law.
