INDIAN police have shot dead a television journalist during a protest over the sexual assault of a film actress.
The 36-year-old journalist was "killed in police firing" in Imphal, capital of Manipur state, police spokesman A Singh told AFP on Sunday.
The protest was separate from the wave of demonstrations sparked by the gang rape of a student in New Delhi last weekend.
Manipur has been rocked by its own of protests after the actress known as Momoko was dragged from stage in full public view last week by an armed militant belonging to a banned rebel outfit.
He then tried to rape her but she managed to fight him off and flee.
Momoko, also a popular model, has waived her right to anonymity and appealed on television for her attacker's arrest.
On Saturday, crowds had thrown stones at police in Imphal, damaging six of their vehicles, prompting authorities to impose a curfew in parts of the state.
The curfew was relaxed on Sunday, after which a huge crowd of protesters assembled and confronted police, who opened fire hitting the journalist, Singh said.
