Manipur Violence: Supreme Court Hearing- LIVE UPDATES

Grover: Why would a woman tell? If the government doesn't take any action? So a team suggested by Ms Jaising is required.

Grover: There is another girl- 18 year old, she was also gangraped. There was a zero FIR but that is where the matter stands. The matters halt at FIRs.

Grover: Two women were working at car wash in Imphal. A crowd come, tortured, murdered. Their bodies are lying in a morgue in Imphal. The families are in camps. The mother has lodged FIR, there is noone in govt who has come and said what is fate of remains.

Sr Adv Vrinda Grover: I am representing, women in governance which is a network of academics etc- they have visited 163 relief camps so what I've mentioned are facts from ground.

Gupta: I am pressing FIRs against police officers who were present- they actually lodged FIR saying 1000-1500 assailants had barged in village yet there was noone to protect them.

Adv Gupta submits her suggestions to the bench.

Gupta: They need to be rehabilitated. Legal aid from NALSA, fast track courts should be established.

Gupta: While this investigation is going on, the team should also have magistrate to record their statements then and there.

Adv Shobha Gupta: There has to be an SIT for confidence building measures. A team should be sent from here under aegis of SC- to meet and get victims' first hand statements. On basis of that FIRs should be noted- we did in Delhi riots also. So victims don't have to go to police.

Gonsalves: There is not much faith in CBI- the reason for that is that the Central government closed its eyes on Manipur. The people in Manipur, the victim, could not distinguish between State govt and Central govt- they acted in unison. Kindly consider not having CBI at all.
