Imphal, April 08 2012:
The JAC against the gang-rape of a housewife on March 24 staged a sit-in protest today at Keishamthong Kabui Khun today.
Slogans like 'Hang the culprits,' 'Let the Government act or resign' were raised by the protestors.
The JAC members who took part in the protest questioned why the Government is adamant on taking no action against the culprits.
They said that lodging the culprits in jail would only encourage other personnel to commit more such crimes.
The protesters demanded that apart from the four culprits involved in the rape, equal punishment should also be given to SI Tiken, who allegedly issued the weapon used by the rapists.
The JAC would continue its stir until the demands are fulfilled.
