Green Blood - Diksha Singh talks about her late father, Jagendra Singh

Diksha is Jagendra Singh’s daughter, the journalist who was burned alive and died in 2015, after accusing a local official of various acts of corruption. Diksha tells Forbidden Stories who her father was: a journalist fed up with injustice. The “Green Blood” series pursued the investigations of several reporters who faced threats when covering environmental damage and other abuses by mining companies. For the first time, 40 journalists from 15 countries organized by Forbidden Stories were able to go in to the field, track supply chains and use open source tools to look into mines in India, Tanzania and Guatemala where questionable practices had previously been covered up. The results of this eight-month-long collaborative investigation will be published the week of June 17 in 30 media organizations around the world to keep those stories alive.
