Singh was recording a mob burning a truck at the protest when police began firing into the crowd. Five officers were suspended as a result of the incident.[6] Singh was taken to a local hospital where he later died from a gunshot wound to the chest.[2] ContextThe protest Singh was covering at the time of his death was in reaction to two assaults on women. The first was an attack on a local actress called Momoko, who was attacked by a man who climbed on stage and repeatedly kicked her during a fundraising event. The other was the fatal gang-rape of a 23-year-old female student by six men on a bus in New Delhi.[8] In that incident, the victim had three abdominal operations and went into cardiac arrest.[1] The protesters at Imphal were demanding the arrest of the man who attacked Manipuri actress Momoko at a local high school.[7] The attacker was Lt. Col. Living-stone, also written as Livingstone or Living Stone, a militant member of a Naga separatist group National Socialist Council of Nagaland.[8][9] The separatist leader also shot at at least one person who tried to defend the actress before he fled.[10][11][12] The protests in 2012 were national, but the recent protests had led to violence and police enforced curfews in parts of Manipur afterwards.[13] Kavita Krishnan, secretary of the All India Progressive Women's Association that is affiliated with the Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) Liberation, believes the culture of victim-blaming surrounding sex crimes is the deeper issue behind the protests in Indian.[14] Some Indian officials have insisted that a person cannot be prosecuted for rape if they know their victims.[15] Reporting rape in India can endanger the one who reports and the victim of the crime.[16] It is estimated that thousands of rapes occur annually in India but only 600 are reported. This is likely due to how the cases are handled and the widely held belief that behaviors of women may invite rape. This mentality promoting rape culture is not considered a distinctly Indian issue, but a worldwide issue.[14] ImpactThe circumstances of Singh's death led to Indian officials being questioned about police response to such events.[17] The protest was one of many that took place around this time to combat the high rate of sexual violence in India.[17] The gang-rape that sparked this demonstration has created greater demand for the security of women. The government ordered an inquiry into the handling of rape cases.[18] The men accused of the gang rape have been charged with murder.[14] ReactionsBob Dietz, Asia program coordinator for the Committee to Protect Journalists, said, "Indian officials must fully explain the circumstances of this killing, and hold all of those responsible fully accountable. It is the only way to improve the police response to such public outcries in the future."[17][19] William Horsley, Centre for Freedom of the Media at the University of Sheffield, said, "What is needed is the public and the press to make the world's populations understand the link between the killing of journalists and the undermining of the rule of law and stability in whole societies."[3] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.dailydot.com/news/india-protests-rapists-names-online/|title=India will publish rapists' names, photos, and addresses online|work=The Daily Dot}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Singh, Bwizamani}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.manipur.org/news/2013/04/29/newseum-in-washington-d-c-to-honor-thangjam-dwijamani-on-may-13/|title=Newseum in Washington D.C. to honor Thangjam Dwijamani on May 13|publisher=}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.51voa.com/VOA_Standard_English/un-spearheads-drive-to-protect-journalists-after-deadly--48120.html|title=VOA Standard English - UN Spearheads Drive to Protect Journalists After Deadly 2012|publisher=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.cpj.org/killed/2012/bwizamani-singh.php|title=Dwijamani Singh|publisher=}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.cpj.org/blog/2013/03/indian-law-enforcement-unaccountable-in-journalist.php|title=Indian law enforcement unaccountable in journalist attacks|publisher=}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.cpj.org/blog/2012/12/amid-deadly-demonstrations-focus-on-india-police.php|title=Amid deadly demonstrations, focus on India police|publisher=}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thejournal.ie/delhi-gang-rape-protests-pm-729248-Dec2012/|title=India: PM urges calm as anger rages over gang-rape|author=AFP|work=TheJournal.ie}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://asiancorrespondent.com/2012/12/indian-journalist-killed-in-police-firing/|title=Indian journalist killed in police firing|author=AP News|publisher=}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/strikehit-manipur-braces-for-naga-blockade/article4237743.ece|title=Strike-hit Manipur braces for Naga blockade|author=PTI|work=The Hindu}} 10. ^{{cite news|first=Kishalay |last=Bhattacharjee|title=Actor in Manipur says she was molested, hit on stage|publisher=NDTV|date=December 21, 2012|url=http://www.ndtv.com/india-news/actor-in-manipur-says-she-was-molested-hit-on-stage-508117}} 11. ^{{cite news|title=Molestation Of Momoko Condemnations pour in|publisher=The Sagai Express|date=December 21, 2012|url=http://www.thesangaiexpress.com/22144-molestation-of-momoko-condemnations-pour-in/}} 12. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.scotsman.com/news/world/indian-tv-reporter-shot-by-protesters-1-2705448|title=Indian TV reporter shot by protesters|publisher=Scotsman|date=December 24, 2012}} 13. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/news/world_news/Asia/article1182630.ece|title=Television reporter killed during protests over sex attacks in India - The Sunday Times|publisher=}} 14. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.bajanreporter.com/2013/01/ending-indias-rape-culture-by-naomi-wolf-copyright-project-syndicate-2012/|title=The Bajan Reporter - “Ending India’s Rape Culture” by Naomi Wolf – Copyright: Project Syndicate, 2012|author=Bajan Reporter|publisher=}} 15. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.gulf-times.com/story/337220/Ending-India-s-rape-culture|title=GULF TIMES|work=Gulf-Times}} 16. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.cpj.org/2014/02/attacks-on-the-press-security-sexual-assault.php|title=Finding the Courage to Cover Sexual Violence|publisher=Committee to Protect Journalists}} 17. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/26/bwizamani-singh-dead-indian-journalist_n_2365144.html|title=Bwizamani Singh, Indian Journalist, Shot Dead By Police During Protests Of Violence Against Women|date=26 December 2012|work=The Huffington Post}} 18. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/ending-indias-rape-culture/article6814566/|title=Ending India’s rape culture|work=The Globe and Mail |date=January 1, 2013}} 19. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.cpj.org/2012/12/in-india-police-shoot-dead-journalist-covering-pro.php|title=In India, police shoot dead journalist covering protest|publisher=Committee to Protect Journalists}} 6 : 2012 deaths|Journalists killed in India|Murdered Indian journalists|People shot dead by law enforcement officers|Protest-related deaths|1976 births |
