According to the UK's latest statistics (2012) the Sikhs make up 0.9% of the prison population and thats largely in line with them being 0.7% of the general population of the UK.

The Hindus make up 0.5% of the prison population and its important to note how the Hindus in general in the UK are mostly middle class and live in nice areas where crime and contact with the criminal justice system is less likely. The Sikhs in the UK however, mostly live in inner city areas and are mostly working class. Thus, it makes perfect sense that a Hindu in the UK would be slightly less likely than a Sikh in the UK to be in prison.

That is common sense but common sense goes out of the window when one considers the figures for India. In India, the opposite is true as the Sikhs do not exist at all among the millions of Hindus that belong to one of the criminal tribes or castes and Sikhs do not exist among the very destitute beggars who are of course more likely - sometimes justifiably - to committ crime. In India then, despite the Sikhs being less likely to commit crime than a Hindu there are three times more of them in prison. How do you justify that then ?

Good Point.

Evidence please?

0.06% of British Hindus are in prison compared to 0.18% of British Sikhs, according to this http://www.mcb.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/MCBCensusReport_2015.pdf page 42

Your right, that seems unjustifiable. Maybe you could try looking up the prison stats in Punjab and see what the most common types of arrests are.

Majority of sikhs are in prisons who have committed no crimes whatsoever. They are held there under false reasons and fake accusations/allegations. They are innocent. You cannot justify the '3 times more' figure at all.

Yes, Hindus like you will justify it!

No, I am not a Hindu but a Sikh, so don't have a fit over this new bit of knowledge now.

Read my previous posts if your dyslexia can handle the challenge!!

This is a straightforward case of prejudice against the sikhs and we all know the reasons, don't we? Again a straightforward case of deliberate demonisation, institutionalised vilification, degredation of one's much glorified past/history and sense of self-worth and you name it and it is all there. It is all deliberate and with full knowledge. No doubt about it. This is just so shocking that I cannot find words to express my annoyance or hatred towards India or the effing rulers of that effing country!!

I AM NOT INDIAN. I NEVER WAS AND NEVER WILL EVER BE ONE. I am a sikh through and through but not an Indian. I don't have Indian passport and I wasn't born there. If one is not born there then they can't be calling themselves Indians. I feel very sad about what they are doing to our sikh kom there, it makes your blood boil. Even if they protest peacefully they are shot!!! Our Living Guru is desecrated deliberately and knowingly by those that are totally committed to destroy sikhi from India. Well, I am truly shocked.

"Just what kind of a Sikh would be happy to inflict such a degrading existence and value upon his children ?"

Not a single sikh ever! NOT NOW NOT EVER!!

Are you an Amritdharii or a 3HO

Sikh? Just wondering?

Same person hiding under a different ID that was making online threats to singhnihk on another thread on sikhsangat.com!

singhnihk left the forum for a while and came back only recently. The MOD knows who this person is and should ban his/her IP forever!

Unless, it is someone on the moderating team playing up? Mod, is it?

There are also many Uncle Tom Sikh British people. Who drape themselves in the National flag. If Britian went to war with India who would we side with?
