NEW YORK: In yet another racist attack a Sikh was victimized in New York last week.

Upinderjit Singh Sahansra of Elmhurst New York was brutally beaten up by five black youths who insisted that he was an Iraqi because of his appearance Upinderjit tried his best to explain that he was a Sikh but his pleas were in vain

It is important that we take steps to create public awareness about ourselves to avoid such attacks. If you or someone you know has had any such problems please contact the World Sikh News.
