Kuki Woman Killed in Manipur's Kamjong Amid Violence and Prohibitory Orders
A Kuki woman, Domkhonei Touthang, was shot dead during a security operation in Manipur's Kamjong district on October 9, triggering violence between Kuki and Naga groups. The incident occurred amid protests against the arrest of Chassad village volunteers. Following the shooting, gunfire and arson continued overnight, with several houses reportedly torched. Authorities imposed prohibitory orders within a 400-metre radius of Chassad police gate junction under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita to prevent further unrest. The Kuki-Zo Women's Forum has called for an impartial investigation and support for the victim's family.
