The BSF's Darkest Secret: When Military Honor Becomes a License to Kill The recent arrest of a Border Security Force (BSF) jawan in Punjab for allegedly murdering his wife has exposed a disturbing pattern within India's elite military forces.
On the surface, Amarjit Singh's case appears to be a tragic incident of domestic violence, but it reveals a culture of impunity and silence that perpetuates abuse.
Amarjit Singh, a 12 year veteran of the BSF, had been married for over a decade when he allegedly subjected his wife Rama to harassment and physical assault.
