Imphal, September 20 2013 :
The Zeliangrong Students Union, Manipur (ZSUM) has strongly condemned the alleged attempt to rape a 7-year old girl in Tamenglong inside her school bus on September 12 .
ZSUM general secretary Shangruh Gangmei demand-ed that the accused serving as a rifleman in the 5th Manipur Rifles posted at Peace Camp in Tamenglong, should be gi-ven a befitting punishment.
The accused is from Imphal East's Khurai Ningthoukhong Leikai, reported Newmai News Network.
"Such acts of rape or attempted rape and molestation have become common in Ma-nipur.
To prevent such evil activities examplary punishment should be given to the accused," stated Shangruh Gangmei.
The ZSUM leader also demanded authority concerned to terminate the accus- ed from his service and give him life imprisonment.
"If our sentiment is ignor-ed by the authority, ZSUM along with frontal organisations will take up strong agitation," the Zeliangrong students' leader said.
