A GROUP of Indian men caught brandishing guns at a Sikh temple in northwest Melbourne have been investigated by police. At least two long-arm rifles were unloaded from a car at a religious gathering at Khalsa Shaouni, a large Sikh temple in Plumpton last week. The firearms had been taken to the temple to be blessed by a high-profile religious leader on tour from India. Members of Melbourne’s Indian community have slammed the group, claiming their actions threaten to create serious racial divisions. “We don’t need idiots like that coming from India promoting gun culture,” one said. “It shows a complete lack of respect for the law. “It’s not a good image for people to brandish guns at a temple, especially in recent times. “There are nomads who live by the gun in India. It’s wrong. We don’t want that culture here.” Police attended the Melton Highway temple after receiving reports of weapons on the premises. A 28-year-old Taylors Hill man will receive a formal warning for allowing an unlicensed individual to hold his registered firearms. Solicitor Baldwin Lam told the Herald Sun the guns were produced only for ceremonial purposes. “They were not there for shooting. It was not related to violence, only a cultural thing,” he said. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/law-order/indians-brandish-rifles-at-plumpton-sikh-temple-in-melbourne/news-story/063520ad193e7b92e0901e6b99e10de7
