.

In a separate post, the police warned the public against sharing the video online “to avoid torturing the victim and her family”.

The video of the alleged gang-***** began circulating online on Sunday. It triggered shockwaves as Tanzania is a highly ************* society.

The country is struggling to deal with a surge in gender-based *********, with some cases going unreported, according to local media.

It is unclear when the video was filmed but the victim was reportedly a resident of Yombo Dovya, a suburb in the commercial city of Dar es Salaam.

Police have urged people to remain calm, while investigations continue, adding: “Detailed information about the incident will be issued once we have completed the legal procedures.”

Human rights groups and social media users are calling on the authorities to act quickly and decisively.

that “ignoring these issues will only lead to their increased occurrence in our society”.

Lawyers from Tanganyika Law Society condemned what it called a “****** violation of both the country’s laws and societal norms”.

Home Affairs Minister Hamad Masauni was quoted as saying that the suspects were “already” under arrest, but did not provide more details.
