Imphal, December 23 2014:
A 40 year old man was admitted at Raj Medicity today after he was brutally slashed with a knife on his head by a group of four persons at a lane opposite Iboyaima Yaima Shumang Leela Shanglen.
The victim, identified as RK Surjit, underwent 11 stitches behind the ear.
According to Gita (w/o Surjit) , Surjit was off to a relative's house when he was attacked by the elder brother of one Naorem Pritam of Nongmeibung Pung Makhong and three other persons.
Mention may be made here that Surjit is the father of a minor girl who was allegedly raped by Naorem Pritam three years ago.
Surjit was travelling on foot.
He was stopped on the way by the group led by Pritam's brother who started threatening him.
Pritam's brother threatened to kill Surjit and his family in case he (Surjit) took his brother to Court.
Surjit was stabbed when he refused to comply with the group's demand, Gita told the media at a press meet held today.
She has further called for mass support from public/private organisations/committees in bringing justice to the victim's family.
