In the wake of Vickrum Digwa's sentencing for the murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak, the Sikh community in the UK has reported daily assaults. Dabinderjit Singh, a senior member of the Sikh Foundation, highlighted the ongoing violence at a march commemorating the 42nd anniversary of the Golden Temple massacre in Amritsar, India. Singh noted that since Digwa's conviction, Sikhs have faced attacks in various public spaces, including parks and gyms. He attributed the rising hostility to inflammatory remarks made by politicians like Nigel Farage and JD Vance, which have incited a backlash against the Sikh community. Singh condemned the politicization of Nowak's murder, insisting it should not be framed as a racial or religious issue. Community members, including retired doctor Davinder Singh and researcher Pritpal Kaur, echoed these sentiments, emphasizing that Digwa's actions do not represent Sikh values. They called for a collective effort to prevent further violence and promote understanding rather than division.
