“Can No Longer Tolerate”: Zo Women’s Movement<\/strong><\/p>\n

The civil society group Zo Women’s Movement (ZWM) in a statement condemned what it termed as “repeated and brutal violence that continues to plague our community.”<\/p>\n

“Our hearts are broken, and our collective conscience is deeply disturbed by the recent report of alleged repeated rape of a minor girl child – a crime that has once again violated the innocence of one of our most vulnerable members,” the collective of women from the Zo tribes said.<\/p>\n

“It is a sickness that we can no longer tolerate. The last victim has not even seen justice, and already another child has been brutalised. This pattern cannot continue. We do not want apologies or empty promises. We demand that the perpetrators of these heinous acts face the full weight of the law…” the ZWM said.<\/p>\n

The sexual assault on the 10-year-old girl comes less than a month after a Class 2 student was murdered<\/a> at a relief camp for internally displaced people in Churachandpur. Her family and some Zomi organisations alleged she was sexually assaulted before she was killed.<\/p>\n
