  2. Derby Sikh temple knifeman admits to stabbing and burglary charges Mohammed Ibrar's offence was described as a 'hate crime' Scene of an alleged stabbing in Normanton Road A 32-year-old Derby man has admitted to breaking into a Normanton temple before stabbing a man in a shop in what police later confirmed was a hate crime. Mohammed Ibrar pleaded guilty to assault occasioning grievous bodily harm with intent, possessing a knife and burglary when he appeared over videolink from HMP Nottingham for the 15-minute hearing at Derby Crown Court. But he denied the more serious charge of attempted murder saying through a Hindi interprepeter “I did not want to kill him, I was not in a good mental state”. Prosecutor Jonathan Cox said those pleas were acceptable, telling the court both a prosecution and defence psychiatrists had assessed Ibrar since he was remanded following the incident in May 2020. Adjourning the sentence, Judge Jonathan Bennett said: “Mr Ibrar you have pleaded guilty to three of these offences and the prosecution are not going to proceed with the most serious charge of attempted murder. “I am going to sentence you when I have heard both from the prosecution and your own barrister. “On that date I will allow an hour-and-a-half and in the meantime you will be remanded into custody. “Do you understand that?” Ibrar, through the interpreter, replied: “Yes I do.” Ibrar broke into the Guru Arjan Dev Sikh Gurdwara in Stanhope Street on the morning of Monday, May 25. Another call came in minutes later to say that a man had been stabbed inside the Polanica shop, in nearby Normanton Road. On arrival, officers found a 41-year-old man with injuries. The man was taken to the Queen’s Medical Centre for treatment and was later discharged. In a statement released the following day, Chief Superintendent David Cox said: “I know this is a very upsetting incident not only because this is a place of worship but the alleged actions of the individual involved have a wider impact across the community. “I am taking this incident very seriously and I have a team of detectives who are working through the full circumstances of what has taken place. “As this investigation progresses I hope we will gain a clearer understanding of what happened. “This was a challenging incident to respond to with multiple scenes and multiple calls for service within minutes. I would like to thank those members of the community who assisted the police yesterday. “This is being treated as a hate crime.” In the days following the incident, the Sikh and Muslim communities in Derby issued a statement of solidarity. A post put up on the Derby Jamia Mosque Facebook page said both faiths “condemned the senseless acts without reservation”. It read: “On Monday, May 25, 2020, Guru Arjan Dev Ji Gurdwara was attacked by an individual who caused extensive damage to the windows and doors. “We, the undersigned representatives of the main Muslim and Sikh communities, condemn this senseless act without reservation. “Desecration of places of worship is unacceptable and can never be justified nor condoned. The Muslim and Sikh communities have been living together in Derby in peace and harmony for many years. “These types of senseless acts will not separate us. The actions of individuals do not represent our communities. “ The statement was signed by the Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji Gurdwara; Derby Jamia Mosque; Sri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara; Islamic Centre; Al-Farooq Masjid; Guru Ravidass Gurdwara; Pakistan Community Centre; Ramgharia Sabha Gurdwara and the Indian Community Centre. https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/derby-news/derby-sikh-temple-knifeman-admits-4935332
  3. Check this hindustani extremist who claims to be a punjabi hindu who has been promoting hate and violence against Sikhs for 2 years now on youtube and perhaps more on the internet. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyNZB5agRv8jv_LgJsPHtdA We need international Sikh orgs to take action against such hate promoting people as they are poisoning the minds of the next generations with further hate and violence.
  4. https://www.boomlive.in/politics/farmers-protests-anti-sikh-tweets-twitter-republic-day-tractor-rally-hate-speech-violence-delhi-khalistan-rhetoric-1984-riots-11761?infinitescroll=1 I wonder if twitter and instagram will act against explicit threats of terrorism and extreme violence against Sikh communities especially religious minorities. They seem to take down legitimate journalist Sikh social media accounts at the behest of the corrupt indian terrorist establishment recently yet strangely that same indian establishment that claims to be a democracy and treat everyone equally under the constitution has not spoken out against or taken action against RSS hindu extremist terrorists and their open support to genocide Sikhs just because a few Sikhs happened to put their flags on top of laal killa without taking the main indian national flag down that was still allowed to stand flying. People used to say it was RSS that did the genocide in 1984 not just congress party, that RSS had the resources and the manpower to murder people in such a short time like they did in Gujarat in 2002 against muslims. It is a known fact that some RSS workers in 1984 were caught who actively took part in murdering innocent Sikh civilians blending in with congress workers because RSS the Hindu terror org is active in all political parties and all institutions of the indian Union.
  5. Codeword for anti-sikh hate is khalistan and khalistani so when they use the khalistani term it is a codeword for Sikhs. If you see their real face and agenda on social media apps like twitter and instagram you will see alot of anti-sikhi propaganda, abuse of Guru's, abuse of gurbani, they are targeting Sikhism directly. Even pro-india Sikhs who don't believe we need a khalistan or support it can see whats going on. The real religious hindu's have no time for these far right hindustani sanghi trolls they too busy in their own religious affairs and spirituality to get caught up in hating other faiths. However these adharmi far right atheist hindustani extremists do not care for promoting goodness they want to promote the ideology of ultra nationalist hindu nationalism with no tolerance for other viewpoints and minorities within that vision so if they create their totalitarian authoritarianism higher caste state they would victimism the dalits again, the jains, the buddhists never mind the Sikhs who they have been victimising because we stand in direct opposition to their evil ideology and oppression of the weak and poor. Also note when far right indian media channels and broadcasters use the term khalistani or khalistan note that it is codeword for Sikh and promoting Sikhphobia. We need serious attention paid by our intelligentsia in the academic, legal, political and religious fields to look into this.
  6. When it comes to sikhphobia these kinda sikhs are very quite there slience speaks volumes they don't post anything on social media . When islamists attack and genocide Sikhs in afghanistan, pakistan, kashmir these fake sikhs stay quite. When blacks are being racist to non-blacks they are quite. As soon as a non-black says anything or does anything out of the wood work the dhimmi whites, dhimmi Sikhs and dhimmi south asians come out to jump on the bandwagon. Can someone explain who are these people and what brainwashed them to be self hating and anti-their own people? The black community is very strong very vocal and do not tolerate injustices they know how to defend themselves. They do not need our support or help, they are not enslaved and oppressed like they used to be pre-1960s. The amount of black celebs/film actors/sports stars/music stars and promotion of white women with black men all over popular media is testimony they are far better off place than other most non-white minority groups. Huge black population in non-indigenous black lands like north and south america, in europe proves this that they are a community on the rise and not being genocided by muslim arabs or white europeans any more like they was in africa and slavery days. Yes there's isolated cases of discrimination by the white state authorities but on the whole the black community is not oppressed like they used to be back in days. The muslim community is very strong very vocal ,do riot do know how to defend themselves they do not need our support. They are 1.8 billion strong 50 countries to their name. No muslim or black group or people stand up for us when Sikhs are attacked only a handful of sympathetic whites here and there and some token muslims who do not openly and loudly condemn their fellow muslims for attack on Sikhs rather they say all religious places should be safe.
  7. The main threat and attacks seem to be coming from islamic aggressors though there have been white far right extremists who also carried out attacks But the problem is that Sikhs will rally around and call out white anti-sikh extremist attacks openly yet when it comes to islamic attacks they go quite or give cover to islamic aggressors. So to the islamophiles and islamo-apologist Sikhs who get hoodwinked time after time by not speaking out against islamic extremism against their community because they are either afraid of speaking truth to power or sweet talked by muslim friends so dont want to offend them. Lets compile a list of worldwide attacks so that they can see the pattern of behavior of muslim on sikh violence since 1947.
  8. If so whats your experiences and how did it effect you?
  9. 'Names of killers still reverberate in my ears': 19 years after Chittisinghpora massacre, lone survivor recounts night that killed 35 Sikhs India Aamir Ali Bhat Mar 21, 2019 00:11:02 IST Anantnag: It was 20 March, 2000. The sky was murky and overcast. Just after dusk, worshippers were walking back home from the temples in the Sikh-dominated Chittisinghpora village in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district. Some were chatting by the roadside while the women were busy preparing dinner. It was a routine evening. Nobody would have thought that the small pastoral hamlet with a stunning natural landscape was about to change, that the idyll would be shrouded in horror and distress. A group of masked gunmen in army fatigues barged into the village. They split into two groups and rounded up 36 Sikhs, including teenagers, the young and the elderly. They made two groups of Sikhs stand outside the two gurdwaras in the area located just 150 metres apart. The terrified Sikhs were unsure what was going to happen when in unison, both groups of gunmen fired indiscriminately at point-blank range. All, except Nanak Singh, then 39, died. Nanak Singh, the line survivor of the Chittisinghpora massacre. Image courtesy: Aamir Ali Bhat The gunmen left, leaving behind a trail of dark memories that still haunt the villagers. The massacre had sent shockwaves across India. Around 30 women were left widowed and scores of children were orphaned that dreadful night. The memories of the carnage are still fresh in Nanak's mind. The soft-spoken and grey-bearded survivor of the Chittisinghpora massacre is a retired government employee. He lost his son, brother and three cousins that night. This is his recount of the tragedy: Winter had just passed in Kashmir. It was still a bit cold outside. I had donned a pheran. Like every day, we were gossiping as we walked home from the temple. A group of gunmen in army fatigues entered our village through a narrow lane from the back, their faces were covered with a mask. Their sudden presence didn’t frighten us as it was normal during those days. We thought they were fauji (soldiers). Later, their actions signalled that something unusual was going to happen. I don't know how many of them were there, but it was a huge group and one leader was giving them directions. They broke into two parties. One group went down the road towards Shaukeen Mohalla Gurdwara. "What's happened, sir? Is everything alright?" we asked the gunmen. "Yes, everything is alright. We have to check your identity cards. It will take 10 minutes. Stay here," they replied. The wall in the background contains pictures of those killed in Chittisinghpora massacre Image courtesy: Aamir Ali Bhat Some of them barged into houses located close to the two gurdwaras and brought more men out. Among them were my son Gurmeet Singh, who had recently passed Class 10 exam, my 28-year-old brother Darbari Singh and three cousins — 22-year-old Sartaj Singh, 20-year-old Kulbeer Singh and 25-year-old Ujjal Singh. Sartaj had been married for 10 months while Darbari was a farmer with two kids. Both his children aged less than 10 years. "Where are the militants? We have information that some militants are visiting this village," they said. "We haven’t seen any militants, Sir. You may have the wrong information," we replied. Sinister thoughts crossed my mind. I murmured into the ear of my neighbour Charan Singh, standing by my right, that we were going to die today. We could sense a murderous frenzy in the actions of the gunmen. They lined us up outside Singh Sabha Sumandri Hall Gurdwara. There were 19 of us. My son was beside me. I still remember I was seventh from the left side. At the same time, the other group of gunmen placed 17 Sikhs in a row outside Shaukeen Mohalla Gurdwara, 150 metres down the road. It was 7.45 pm. There were eight to 10 gunmen in front of us. We were still unsure about their plan. The first spot of the Chittisinghpora massacre where 18 Sikhs were killed. Image courtesy: Aamir Ali Bhat One of them fired in the air — a signal to the other group to get ready to kill. Then they shot indiscriminately at us. The firing continued for a few minutes. All of us fell to the ground. I didn’t receive any bullet, but I dropped to the ground and played dead, I was murmuring, "Waheguru Ji, Waheguru Ji", under my breath. They stopped firing and flashed torches at us. "Akh round aur maro saalu ko. Koi nahi bachna chahiye (Shoot these idiots again. Make sure everyone is dead),” one of them ordered. I became ready to die this time. They fired at us again, and one bullet pierced my left leg and broke my right thigh joint. I didn’t scream. As they left, vanishing through the route they had come, they chanted 'Jai Hind!', 'Jai Mata Di!' and 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai!' I was bleeding profusely. I opened my eyes and found someone had clutched me with his arm. I lifted his arm and looked closely, it was my son Gurmeet. I shook his body, I called him, tried to wake him up. Then I touched his head; it was soaked in blood. Tears rolled down my face. I was not able to stand up. I wanted a sip of water. A pile of bodies was lying before me in a pool of blood, some were still shaking and wobbling. Each man was hit by 10 to 12 bullets. That dreadful scene is imprinted on my mind. My cousin Sartaj was robust. With his bullet-riddled chest, he walked up to our house. Then the villagers came, beating their chests. They picked me up. The gunmen had turned our village into a slaughterhouse. The road ran red, and blood squished under shoes. The Bullet marks are preserved at the second spot where 17 Sikhs were killed in the Chittisinghpora massacre. Image courtesy: Aamir Ali Bhat Sartaj and I were placed in a room. There was no vehicle in the village. Men, women, children, everyone was crying and screaming for help. Some young Sikh villagers ran to the police station, around seven kilometres away from our village. I too was crying. Shrieking. I had witnessed the brutal death of my loving son. "Why are you crying? Stop screaming," Sartaj was telling me in a broken voice. By the time police reached our village, Sartaj had taken his last breath. He might have survived if he had been given immediate treatment. The police took me to Anantnag district hospital, from where I was shifted to Bone and Joint Hospital, Barzulla, Srinagar. The next day, I was referred to the army hospital, where I stayed for 25 days and was operated on once. I was still unable to walk. I went to Amritsar, where the Sikh committee took me to a senior doctor. I was operated twice. My damaged hip joint was replaced by an artificial one. It took me months to recover. I didn’t even take part in my son's last rites. I stayed with my relatives in Jammu for some time, to get over the shock. Nothing is worse than to witness the gruesome murder of your loved ones. While the gunmen were conversing, I had heard three names — Pawan, Bhansi and Bahadur. I don’t know if these names were fake or real, but they still reverberate in my ears. As the lone survivor of the massacre, I gave scores of interviews. I was an eyewitness in a number of courts and government offices. Nothing happened. Then we lost hope of justice. It was a premeditated massacre. We only saw a flawed inquiry and later, fake promises. A widow points at the name of her husband killed in the Chittisinghpura massacre. Image courtesy: Aamir Ali Bhat The massacre was carried out to give a wrong message about Kashmir to former US President Bill Clinton, who was visiting India. Everyone is aware of the Pathribal fake encounter, in which five innocent civilians were killed, and later dubbed militants responsible for the Chittisinghpora massacre. Even the CBI report suggested that the five civilians were killed in cold blood in Pathribal. After the massacre, people suggested I migrate from Kashmir. But I refused. Why would I leave my village? I was born here. I lived here and will die here. We didn’t make an issue of the massacre. Everyone in Kashmir had been witnessing death and destruction for decades now. We still live happily with our Muslim brothers. The criminals failed to break our bonds. I can only say that it was a miracle that I survived, for hundreds of bullets were fired at us at point-blank range. Three-day mourning for Chittisinghpora massacre victims Nanak now lives with his other son, Manmeet Singh, also a government employee. Every year, on the anniversary, Sikh villagers of Chittisinghpora commemorate their loved ones. They observe three days of mourning and memorial events. They have preserved the haunting memories of the massacre, but have lost hope of justice. Nineteen years have passed, and the killings are still shrouded in mystery. After the Chittisinghpora massacre under SRO-43, every victim's family was given Rs 1 lakh and a government job.

  10. The biggest preparators of Sikhphobic hate crime and attacks offline and online have been muslim fascists and far right wing racist white nationalists. Yet Sikhs have been extremely slow recognising this fact and speaking out against it. Even the term "sikhphobia/sikhphobic" is relatively new and should have been used ages ago when muslims started to come out with islamophobia, homosexuals with homophobia and jews with antisemitism.
