US Shooting: Read Bradshaw Sikh Society's statement
Babushahi Bureau
Sacramento, March 27, 2023:
The Bradshaw Sikh Society has issued its statement after two people were shot at a Gurudwara in Sacramento County, California on Sunday.
"The Bradshaw Sikh Society hosted its first Sikh Parade with thousands of congregants from the region. The parade was peaceful and a celebration of faith. It is unfortunate that a few misguided people tried to ruin a cultural and religious event. A shooting occurred at the Gurdwara while the parade was in procession. We hope the culprit(s) is punished to the fullest extent of the law. They were not a part of the parade and showed up after the parade left hours earlier. These displays of violence go against our Sikh faith. We regret any inconvenience and fear this may have caused. We are strong and resilient together. Chardi Kala (Eternal Optimism)," reads the statement.
