STATEMENT FROM THE SIKH COMMUNITY REGARDING THE MEDIA REPORTING OF THE TRIAL RELATING TO THE TRAGIC DEATH OF HENRY NOWAK

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

22 May 2026

On behalf of Sikh organisations and communities across the country, we express our deepest condolences for the tragic loss of life, and our thoughts and prayers remain with the Nowak family and loved ones during this profoundly difficult time.

This incident as reported does not align with the Sikh faith, the Sikh community, or the principles it stands for. Sikh teachings are founded on compassion, justice, humility, responsibility, and service to humanity.

The Sikh community remains peaceful, well-integrated, and a deeply valued part of British society.

We respectfully urge everyone to allow the judicial process to proceed fairly and without prejudice, and to refrain from drawing broad assumptions or judgments about the Sikh faith or Sikh religious practices based on an individual case.

Let us remain united, stay true to our core values, and continue to reject any form of division or negativity-whether intentional or not. Together, we move forward stronger.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
