God bless this poor girl and her family! No one should ever have to go through this. Stay strong.
I am British; there can be no excuse for raping a young woman regardless of race, colour, or religion. Some people are just sick.
Disgusted at this. The Sikh community in the UK are patriots, and are forever welcome here. I hope that the perpetrators are found and punished for this.
This is terrible. Sikhs are lovely, hardworking, respectable people. They have fought for our country and deserve justice.
My heart goes out to her, her family, and the Sikh Community.
