A Congress corporator on Friday blamed the dressing style of north-eastern women for sex crimes in Mumbai, while commenting on an alleged molestation of a 19-year-old Manipuri woman in suburban Santacruz last week.
Miranda on Sunday clarified on his statement after his comment drew flak on social media and was reprimanded by Mumbai Congress unit. “I never intended to say so and my comment was misunderstood.

I have immense respect for all castes, creed and races,” the corporator said.
