Imphal: The Manipur police on Saturday arrested another accused in connection with a viral video which showed two women being paraded naked and sexually assaulted in Manipur.
Four other accused who were arrested on July 20 were remanded to 11-day police custody yesterday.
"This is the fifth arrest made so far in connection with the months-old video, which went viral days ago," Manipur police said today. All-out efforts are being taken to arrest the remaining culprits by conducting raids at many suspected hideouts, Manipur police said in a tweet.
The first arrest in the case was made in the early hours of Thursday, hours after the video surfaced widely.
The incident took place on May 4 in Thoubal district and a case of abduction, gangrape and murder was registered in the matter. (with ANI inputs)
