This isn't the first time and we're afraid it isn't the last. In fact today, just a day after the attack on a Manipuri man in Bangalore, two young men from Nagaland have been beaten up near Delhi by a local gang, reports Hindustan Times. And guess what they were allegedly told while being assaulted? "If you were from Manipur, we would have killed you."

What happened

In what appears to be a hate crime in Bangalore, 26-year-old engineering student T Michael Lamjathang Haokip from Manipur was attacked past midnight by three alleged cab drivers, Times Now reports.

According to CNN-IBN, two others, Ngamkholen Haokip, 28, and Rocky Kipgen, 25, who were with Michael when he was attacked also sustained minor injuries.

"They hit me with stones because I was speaking in the Thadou language. I got five stitches. I have filed a complain. This was a racist attack," Michael told the news channel.
