Tampakmayum Akhtar a young chef got hurt bad after a simple joke at work. He was talking with the cafe owner’s younger brother when Jenita a waitress jumped in. She said Akhtar had said things he shouldn’t have about her and things went from there. This ended with a group attacking him really badly.
The assault happened right there at the cafe. It all started because of what Jenita said about Akhtar’s joke. We don’t know exactly when but the violence was real and Akhtar got badly hurt. This whole thing has made people really angry and they want justice. They also want to highlight how dangerous workplaces can be.
This situation in Manipur brings up a lot of questions about safety at work violence and who’s responsible. It started with a regular talk that got turned into something awful and led to extreme violence. It shows how easy things can be misunderstood and how people can get hurt for it. People are demanding a proper look into this hoping that the attackers are made to pay for what they did and that these kinds of attacks will stop.
