WSC-AR Urges Addressing the Beheading of Sikhs in Pakistan by Taliban

Recent reports of horrific beheadings of Sikhs by the Taliban in Pakistan
are causing major concerns to the Sikhs around the world and in particula r
to the many Sikhs in the United States some of whom have relatives in
Pakistan.  These concerns and horrific reports have led to conclusions th at
the general safety of Sikhs in parts of Pakistan has been compromised.

We also acknowledge and are grateful to the Pakistan authorities who have
freed the remaining known captured Sikhs in the last few days. However th e
conditions of the Sikh community remains a deep concern for us all.
The World Sikh Council ? America Region has requested our
representatives in the US government to make an inquiry to find out what
steps they can take with the Government of Pakistan, as well as other
active organizations, regarding the safety of minorities and particularly
of Sikhs in that country. We will continue to press for assurance and
action so that all are safe and respected.
