The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) will refer the Manipur viral video case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Six arrests have been made in the case so far.
The person who shot the horrific video has been identified and his mobile phone is with security agencies.
The trial of the case is likely to take place outside the northeastern state, which has been engulfed in ethnic violence since May 3, in which more than 160 people have lost their lives.
There has been a massive furore in the country ever since the video of the two Kuki women being paraded naked went viral on social media.
The Union Home Ministry is in touch with both Meitei and Kuki groups and talks are in an advanced stage to restore normalcy in Manipur, according to reports.
