Taliban kill 2 Sikhs, send heads to Pak gurdwara
Jaspal Singh and Mahan Singh, both businessmen, were kidnapped from Tira Valley

The Taliban has reportedly beheaded two Sikhs in Pakistan's lawless tribal region bordering Afghanistan and sent the heads to a gurdwara.
Jaspal Singh and Mahan Singh, both businessmen, were kidnapped from Tira Valley, in Khyber agency, and Darra Adamkheil, in Orakzai agency, on January 19 and held for ransom. Sources in the area told TOI on Sunday that they were killed because they were paying `protection' money to a rival faction.
However, according to security sources in New Delhi, Jaspal and Mahan were reportedly told to convert to Islam or face death. When they refused, their heads were chopped off and sent to the Bhai Joga Singh gurdwara in Peshawar.
The Indian government has taken serious note of this and is in touch with the high commission in Islamabad. "This incident is shocking. We are looking into it," a source said.
The miniscule Sikh community in NWFP and Afghanistan has been under pressure from the Taliban to embrace Islam, official sources said. The Taliban, during their reign in Afghanistan, had imposed jiziya -- a religious tax -- on all minorities, mostly Hindus and Sikhs. They were made to wear a piece of yellow cloth on their breast pocket to identify themselves.








Also, I find it very hard to believe that the very same Afghans that fought alongside Sri Guru Gobind Singh are committing these offences today. Maybe its more of a diversion by the Indian Government to take the away the heat from the grant bailed to Sajjan Kumar. I find that a lot more believable than the 'Taliban murdering Sikhs who refuse to convert to Islam' story. Open your eyes people.
guru gobind singh ji ne panth chalaya si hindu te musalmanna nu milan waste.but these hardcore talibanis(not considering good muslims) dont wantto improve if some talib(created by islamabad forces) reading this,,,,,watever u guys r doing ur n our n everyones that is one god(ek on kar) is seeing this n u guys r goin to see the results in ur own pockets....e.g happening in pak n afgan is very good example these idiots r killing there own identity.
What about the injustice happening to the Monks and people in Burma? What about the injustice to the people in South Africa? In Afghanistan? In Cameroon? as "Sikhs" or rather as human beings shouldn't we be worried about all these acts of violence, oppression and injustice? Not only those who are "Sikhs". Humanity is suffering on the whole. Sikh means learner and it is not the label that is important, it is how you conduct yourself, your behavior and what you do. If we are going to do anything, yes we need to get active, get politically minded and educated. There is nothing wrong with Muslims, but just fanatic ignorant ones. The question is what are we doing as human being to make the world a better place? How do we be compassionate but active human-beings? How do we affect change? How do we educate ourselves and not be ignorant ourselves? How do we be saints and soldiers again?
We can't be against all Muslims as that is ignorance too and it is no good separating ourselves from the rest of humanity as humanity is one.
Anyway that is my humble opinion. Apologies if I offended anyone and if I made any mistakes in what I have said. I too am still learning. May Allah, Waheguru, God, Jehova, Krishna be with you. Higher than truth is truthful Living. WJKK WJKF.
