Manipur CM Yumnam Khemchand Singh has written a formal letter to Delhi CM Rekha Gupta regarding the brutal assault and subsequent demise of musician C. Vikram Singh
NEW DELHI: Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh has written to Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta seeking a fair, transparent and time-bound investigation into the alleged assault and subsequent death of 54-year-old Manipuri musician C Vikram Singh in southeast Delhi.
“Independent Probe: Should circumstances warrant, the feasibility of transferring the case to an independent, specialised agency such as the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) be proactively explored to reinforce complete public confidence,” he said in the letter. South East DCP Vineet Kumar said, “Vikram Singh had an argument with some people in his lane over a lot of noise coming. The letter followed the death of Chongtham Vikram Singh, a music teacher and Manipur native, after an alleged assault in Kilokari village in Ashram. After the argument, there was a physical altercation between them, in which he suffered injuries. His family took him to the hospital, where he passed away.”
