Thangjam Manorama (1970–2004) was a Manipuri woman who on July 10, 2004, was picked up from her home by the Indian paramilitary unit, 17th Assam Rifles on uncertain allegations of being associated with People's Liberation Army. The next morning, her bullet-ridden corpse was found in a field.〔 〕 An autopsy revealed semen marks on her skirt suggesting rape and murder.〔 quote: It has been 8 years since the bullet-riddled body of Manorama Devi, who was brutally raped and murdered allegedly by Assam Rifles personnel, was found at Laipharok Maring village in Imphal East. But her family is yet to get justice. 〕 ==Disparities in official version== At the time of the arrest, no incriminating items were found, as per the arrest memo. Later it was stated that a grenade and other items had been seized from her home.〔http://www.dnaindia.com/blogs/post-a-victory-for-thangjam-manorama-1792650〕 Assam Rifles claimed that she was shot while trying to escape. However, no blood was found near the body despite six bullet wounds. No soldier was identified as having tried to run or detain her.〔 Given these disparities, a commission of inquiry was set up by the Manipur government in 2004, and submitted its report in Nov 2004. However, the Guwahati High court also looked into the matter and ruled that since the Assam Rifles had been deployed under the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, 1958, the state government did not have jurisdiction over them, and the case should be dealt with by the central government. Thus, the report was never released subject to this judgment.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thangjam Manorama」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
