Imphal, June 28 2024:
Five student organisations including DESAM, KSA, SUK and AIMS have strongly condemned the mental trauma and emotional distress inflicted on two minor students by persons clad in Manipur police uniform at Keishampat Junction on June 26 .
A joint press release bearing the signatures of the representatives of five student bodies also urged the Manipur Commission for Protection of Child Rights (MCPCR) to investigate the mishandling of the minor children in school uniform and punish the alleged security personnel involved.
Saying that the attempt to forcefully arrest the children's father in front of them incited fear and panic in their young minds, the joint press release appealed against such mishandling of minor students in the future.
Further acknowledging MCPCR's suo moto cognizance of the incident, the joint press release has appealed for a detailed investigation into the matter.
