Digital Desk: There are grave concerns after the release of yet another distressing video showing brutality in the conflict-hit northeastern state of Manipur.
 
The video, which has gone viral on social media, displays the body of a 'Kuki' man being set on fire in a trench.

According to representatives of the Manipur police, the video appears to have been made in May, a month in which conflict between Kukis and Meiteis in the state reached a peak. On Sunday, a video with the hashtag "Kuki" went viral on social media, including WhatsApp.

A man can be seen in the video lying in a trench with his body on fire with his face showing signs of violence while wearing a black T-shirt and camouflage pants. The footage fails to demonstrate that the man was burned alive as stated.

Strong reactions to this distressing video have included demands for attention to the situation in Manipur and worries about the ongoing violence in the region.
