Manipuri musician Chongtham Vikram Singh, 55, died in Delhi on Monday after he was allegedly assaulted by a group of men outside his home in southeast Delhi’s Kilokari. Police and family members said Singh had gone downstairs after objecting to noise near his residence. He was taken to Holy Family Hospital, where he later died from haemorrhagic shock caused by blunt force trauma. The case has renewed concerns over crimes against people from the Northeast. Between 2014 and April 13, 2026, Delhi recorded 2,656 FIRs involving such crimes, but only 33 cases resulted in convictions, a rate of 1.82%.
