Supreme indictment: on Manipur crisis and the Supreme Court of India’s censure

The Hindu  

The Supreme Court has pulled up the Manipur government for its “lethargic” investigations into the ethnic violence in the sensitive border State that began on May 3 and which has still not been doused. Pointing out that arrests have been “few and far between”, in the context of around 6,500 first information reports filed in relation to the violence, the apex court has asked for more details of the progress in police action, and ordered the personal presence of the Manipur Director General of Police during the next hearing on August 7. Questioning the State police’s capability to investigate these cases, the Court noted that there was a complete breakdown of law and constitutional machinery in the face of mob violence. In Manipur, far from a swift response to prevent escalation, the police allegedly facilitated the mob violence.
