Condemn molestation to a young student at Keishampat
06th October, 2022
Women Action for Development strongly condemn the Incident of the molestation to a young student by a 43 yrs old man at Keishampat Thiyam Leikai on the 4th of October 2022.
This is very unfortunate and shameful that the state has failed to protect and safeguard the future generations of our society .
WAD is very much concerned about the girls who left their homes for their studies since certain facilities are not available in the hills and rural areas of Manipur. The incident must not be taken lightly. It is high time we question ourselves on why such cases are spiking up in the state? What went wrong on the structural formation of our society? What happened to the moral values?
We highly appreciate and acknowledge the people who’ve supported the young girl throughout her tough time, especially the concerned teacher who took immediate action to help disclose the incident, the owners of the CCTV cameras for their cooperation and lastly we acknowledge the actions of the Police team led by the SP Imphal West Ksh. Shivakanta, Add. SP Crime against Women, Ngasepam RaRana, Imphal police Station Officer- in- Charge Ingocha and team of Cyber Cell for their prompt civility to arrest the culprit Mr. Haobam Ibomcha 43 of Lalambung Makhong Takhelleikai within short period of time.
We urge the Government of Manipur to deliver instant justice to the young girl since the vital evidences are already there. We would also like to appeal the State Government to establish certain facilities to protect the young students who are the pillar of the nation from such unwanted situations.
