A Manipuri musician, identified in one report as Chongtham Vikram Singh, dies after being assaulted in Delhi following a dispute outside his apartment. Multiple outlets describe the confrontation beginning when he objects to a group of delivery workers and dhaba staffers shouting and drinking in the area. Police receive information about the incident and open an investigation.

Accounts say the argument escalates and the man is attacked outside his home, including in an alleyway in CCTV-related reporting. He suffers serious injuries and later dies while receiving medical treatment. Times of India reports eight workers are arrested, including a minor. Scroll.in and other reports describe police action and community condemnation, including criticism of violence from a student organisation.

While the outlets align on the core circumstances—noise, drinking, and an assault that results in death—details vary on how the episode is described (including the specific names used and the emphasis on CCTV footage and alleged escape).
