Amritsar, June 25 -The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) President Harjinder Singh Dhami has condemned the attacks on minority Sikhs in Pakistan.

In a statement issued from SGPC office in Amritsar, Dhami said that murder of Sikh shopkeeper Manmohan Singh in Peshawar city in Pakistan is a very unfortunate incident. He said that the government there should be serious about the security of minority Sikhs in Pakistan. This is the second incident of attack on Sikhs in two days.

Dhami said that it is sad that many such incidents have taken place in Pakistan in the past, too. If the government had given severe punishment to the culprits in past cases, then this would not have happened again.

The SGPC President sought strict action from Pakistan’s government against those who killed Sikh shopkeeper Manmohan Singh. He appealed to the External Affairs Minister of India to express strong objection with the Pakistan government in this matter at the diplomatic level and ask them to take appropriate steps to protect the lives and property of the minority Sikhs in future.
