International crimes committed against the Sikh peoples by THIS (Theocratic Hindu Indian State). Simranjit Singh Mann, Member of Parliament<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are posting below the threats under which the Sikhs are living after the Hindu Indian state has assassinated Sikhs in Canada, UK, Islamic Pakistan, Haryana and Punjab and threatened a life of a Sikh US citizen living in New York.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These assassinations within this country and abroad by the Union BJP-RSS government of Premier Nerandra Modi, his Union Home Minister, External Affairs Minister, National Security Advisor, Cabinet Secretary and Intelligence Agencies R&AW, Intelligence Bureau, Military Intelligence have created a world wide fear of being assassinated by the Hindu Indian state.

Three members of a family receive notices from police amid concern about separatist campaigners\u2019 safety<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sikhs in the West Midlands have been issued \u201cthreat to life\u201d warnings, amid growing concern about the safety of separatist campaigners who Sikhs claim are being targeted by the Indian government.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three members of a family received Osman warnings in March from West Midlands police, meaning there is intelligence of a death threat or risk of murder but not enough evidence to justify an arrest.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officers did not provide information about why the warnings, which are named after a high-profile case, were issued.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A spokesperson for West Midlands police said: \u201cWe received information that suggested that members of a family may have been at risk of harm.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have processes in place when we receive information about threats to people, and in line with our duty of care, family members were made aware and advice provided.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the individuals concerned told the Times he was issued a warning along with his father and brother, and believed it could be linked to their views on the Indian government.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said he had \u201cposted stuff on Twitter and Instagram against the regime [in India]\u201d and \u201can Indian government connection would make sense because myself and my dad are vocal in the community and we are independent\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also said the threat could have come from local religious fundamentalists.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sikh community leaders have criticised the UK government for not publicly condemning the Indian government after a Sikh separatist leader was shot dead in Canada, and the US accused India of \u201ctransnational terrorism\u201d after foiling a plot to kill an activist last year.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canada\u2019s prime minister, Justin Trudeau, has blamed the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar on the Indian government, leading to Canada withdrawing 41 diplomats from India.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FBI warned at least three Americans active in the Sikh community that their lives were in danger in the aftermath of the murder.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a meeting of the Federation of Sikh Organisations (FSO) on Sunday, a resolution was passed criticising the UK government for failing to address the threat to the safety and security of Sikh activists in Britain and not publicly condemning transnational repression by the Indian government.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A resolution was also passed urging Sikh leaders not to allow UK politicians to speak in gurdwaras unless they publicly condemn \u201cthe Indian government\u2019s transnational repression of Sikh activists in the diaspora\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The federation also backed a legal challenge by the family of the Sikh activist Avtar Singh Khanda, which is calling for an inquiry into his sudden death in June about the same time as the murder and attempted murder of Sikh separatists in Canada and the US.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been concerned generally with the approach by the UK government and authorities here, we\u2019ve seen an almost complete silence from them,\u201d said Dabinderjit Singh, a principal adviser for the Sikh Federation, which is a leading member of the FSO.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve said nothing about the safety and security of Sikhs in this country. It feels like we\u2019re not necessarily that safe any more. My biggest concern is that Sikhs in the UK will stay away from protests, they won\u2019t raise their voices, because they fear what will happen.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A government spokesperson said: \u201cThe UK is proud of its diverse communities, and British Sikhs contribute immensely to the strength of our society.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe continually assess potential threats in the UK, and take the protection of individuals\u2019 rights, freedoms and safety in the UK seriously.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UK TIMES DATED 15TH JANUARY 2024<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police warn UK Sikhs their lives could be at risk<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sikhs living in Britain have been warned by police that their lives are in danger amid increased tensions over the separatist movement in India and claims of intimidation by Narendra Modi\u2019s regime. The Times has learnt.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Individuals who have been handed Osman notices, in which West Midlands police warn of a \u201cthreat to life\u201d against them, fear they could be linked to assassinations allegedly planned in the United States and Canad by agents of the Indian regime.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It comes after calls for further investigation into the sudden death of Avtar Singh Khanda, 35, who died in Birmingham in June. Khanda was a campaigner for a separate Sikh state.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sikh leaders in Britain have warned that the Indian government is clamping down on dissent in the diaspora and is trying to silence separatists who want an independent Sikh stat known as Khalistan. There are counterclaims that some pro-Khalistan activists in the UK have aggressive and sectarian.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The issuing of Osman notices, which are ordinarily associated with warning organised crime gangs, underline the extent of such tensions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Sikh given an Osman warning said that he originally believed the threat came form religious fundamentalists in the West Midlands community who targeted him because he was not afraid to speak out. However, since Indian agents were accused of a murder in Toronto and of plotting an assassination in New York, he now believes a geopolitical angle is more likely.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The man, whose brother and father were also handed Osman notices, said; \u201cAn Indian government connection would make sense because myself and my dad are vocal in the community\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He acknowledged that it would be a \u201crather big conspiracy\u201d, but added that the option was now \u201cimpossible to ignore because of international events\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

US prosecutors said in November that an unnamed Indian agent had recruited Nikhil Gupta, an Indian citizen, to pay a hitman $100,000 to carry out an assassination in New York of a prominent Sikh separatist leader. He is awaiting trail.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September Justin Trudeau, the Canadian prime minister, said intelligence agencies had credible evidence that Indian agents were behind the fatal shooting of Hardeep Singh Nijjar near Vancouver in June. Nijjar was a Canadian Sikh leader who supported independence for Khalistan. India called that claim \u201cabsurd\u201d and told Canada to withdraw 41 of its diplomats.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the UK, Sikh community leaders have warned that peaceful protesters legitimately calling for Khalistan independence have been placed on lists by the Indian government, labelling them enemies of the state. Jas Sikh, of Sikh Federation UK, which campaigns on issues including Khalistan, said Sikh leaders were talking protective measures. \u201cThere is a really heightened sense of concern\u201d, he said.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Singh and other community leaders are calling for a formal inquest into the death of Khanda, who was admitted to Birmingham City Hospital with a sudden illness in June. He died within days of having been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia and a blood clot in his lungs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Indian authorities had blamed Khanda for pulling down the national flag at a March protest at the Indian high commission in London and he was named in the state press. West Midlands police said a thorough review of the death concluded that there were no suspicious circumstances. However, Sikh activists claim that efforts to have a private autopsy were blocked.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sikh man given the Osman warning, who is in his thirties, said he had tried to find out from West Midlands police who was behind the threat, but was told that they could not give any more information. \u201cThey\u2019ve just told me to take security steps to protect myself\u201d, he said.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

West Midlands police did not respond to questions about concerns of an Indian state-based threat, nor to specifics about its management of Osman notices. A spokesman said. \u201cWe received information that suggested that members of a family may have been at risk of harm. We have processes in place when we receive information about threats to people, and in line with our duty of care, family members were made aware and advice was provided\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Times of India<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

British Sikhs received \u2018threat to life\u2019 warnings from cops.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NAOMI CANTON\/TNN\/ Jan 17, 2024, 00:01 IST<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

LONDON: Several British Sikhs say they have received \u2018threat to life\u2019 notices, also known as Osman warnings, from the British police alerting them of immediate danger.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This has fuelled conspiracy theories that India could be behind the threats, give the court case against Nikhil Gupta in the US regarding an alleged plot to kill Khalistani separatist Gurpatwant Singh Pannu, designated a terrorist by India, with Gupta allegedly recruited by an Indian government employee, as well allegations made by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about a \u2018potential link\u2019 between Indian government agents and the assassination of Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Osman warning is a police warning of a death threat. It is used when there is intelligence of the threat but not enough evidence to justify an arrest. The name derives from the Osman family which won a landmark judgment that police breached Ali Osman\u2019s (a businessman who was shot dead) right to life as they had the information needed to deal with the threat.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Sikh man, whose brother and father were also handed Osman notice, told the UK\u2019s Times he initially thought it came from \u2018religious fundamentalists in the West Midlands\u2019 but following on from the Nijjar and Pannu cases, as well as belief that pro-Khalistan separatist Avtar Singh Khanda was poisoned, he now believes there could be an \u2018Indian government connection.\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAn Indian government connection would make sense. I\u2019ve posted stuff on Twitter and Instagram against the regime\u201d, the man said.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, one Sikh told TOI that he believed the threats came from a radical UK Sikh outfit and there was no Indian government involvement.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dabinderjit Singh, principal adviser of the Sikh Federation (UK), also played down the role of India in these notices, saying: \u201cOsman reports are often to do with domestic gang violence.\u201d But he added: \u201cTransnational repression by the Indian government is real and British Sikhs are being targeted.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deepa Singh, of Sikh Youth UK, was escorted off the plane by 10 counter-terrorism officers at Gatwick airport on Christmas Day and interrogated under Schedule 7 of UK\u2019s Terrorism Act 2000. He said he was targeted because he is \u201ca Sikh activist.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A spokesperson for West Midlands Police told TOI: \u201cWe received information that suggested that members of a family may have been at risk of harm. We have processes in place when we receive information about threats to people, and in line with our duty of care, family members were made aware and advice was provided.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What THIS has done are International crimes of grave criminality as the Hindu Indian state has challenged the sovereignty of Canada, UK, Islamic Pakistan and the USA and it is natural that these countries would take up these crimes with the International Criminal Court at the Hegue and other world forums which deal with crimes against humanity, genocide, memoricide, vandalism and ethnocide. The Sikhs are victims of all these heinous crimes and abuses, assassinations within this country and abroad becoming an added list.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
