|December 10, 2024
NINETEEN months after a brutal and horrific ethnic violence between the Meitei and Kuki-zo communities erupted in Manipur, the Supreme Court on Monday sought a sealed cover report from the state government regarding the properties burnt, looted, trespassed and encroached upon, along with the details of name and address of the owner and who is occupying it at the moment.
A two-judge bench of CJI Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Sanjay Kumar said the state government's report shall also apprise it as to what steps it had already taken or would take to prosecute the accused persons who have trespassed, destroyed, burnt, looted, and encroached upon properties during the violence period.
