Bhai Sukhminder Singh Sandhu and Bhai Ranjit Singh Gill are pawns in anew, modem chess game between nations. India accuses them of Killings and wants them back for trial, but has presented no credible evidence for the demand for their extradition. In the meantime, it has been repeatedly demon started that they will not receive a fair trail in India, The prosecutor in the case, Judy Russell, had admitted to falsifying evidence against them, They have paid by six years in detention, in a limbo, They are lucky not to have been returned to India, but Neither are they free men who can go on with their lives, Political realities and U.S. business interests are willing to let two young Sikhs rot in jail in order to appease India.
The Sikhs in the United States and Canada have supported them and their extradition so far has been prevented, The Sikhs must work harder so that they can be free like the rest of us,
Wherever there is a civilized heart, it must recognize the suffering of Bhai Sandhu and Bhai Gill. Theirs is a cause that de Serves the support not only of the World Sikh News and the Sikhs but of all people every where, Their cause demands moral courage from nations as well as from individuals.
