FW: Please fill in the OFCOM form to Complain about the BBC calling Sikhs Al Qaeda Terrorists
STANDARD COMPLAINT

'COMPLIANT TO OFCOM

On the 26th of Feb 2008 BBC RADIO 4 Broadcast File on 4 at 8pm.The programme was full of slander and complete lies against the Sikh Community,the reporter and producers made claims such as Sikhs have joined hands with Al Qaeda,UK Born Sikhs recieve training at Pakistani camps,lies that Sikh leaders give speeches to encourage militancy and terror from Pakistan over the internet there is no evidence of this on the web,Sikhs were falsely accused of bombing Air India in 1985 no Sikh has been proven guilty for this bombing,Among other lies were that the Sikh Homeland in Panjab is in the midst of a militant insurgency,Sikhs in the UK fund terrorism,UK Sikhs support terrorism through temple funds,Sikhs are forging links with Islamist terror groups,Sikh temples are becoming breeding grounds for Abu Hamza style Extremist preaching,the list is endless,This has had a huge effect on the average public who is uneducated ,Sikhs already get attacked due to mistaken identity after 9/11 .By broadcasting statements like the above:ie:Sikhs are with Al Qaeda this increases the risk of innocent Sikhs getting attacked.Sikhs in no way or shape or form support or fund terrorism and neither are we with Al Qaeda and nor do we receive any training for any purpose from them,their is no proof that Sikhs have carried out acts of terror as said in the programme these are lies and amount to slander of the UK Sikh Coummunity,we are disgusted by the BBC and at how low their standards have become,and urge OFCOM to take swift action against them.
