LONDON (August 9, 2011)–There have been reports of continued riots, including attacks on Sikhs and Gurdwaras. Our correspondents in London are keeping a close eye on recent activities in several cities where rioters have attacked Gurdwaras, along with some mosques and temples. According to recently intercepted information, attackers are aiming at the Broadway area of Southall, which means the Park Ave. Gurdwara may come under attack from the hooligans.
The following message is being spread to instigate attacks in Southall: “All my popeye Acton Northolt Greenford Ruislip Hayes West Drayton Slough Southall Gurnell Cowgate Marnham Hammresmith Harlseden and Wembly niggas that linked up today Roll thru tomoro at 6pm sharp in Southall broadway hit up the jewellers!”
Urgent benti to sangat: Please advise all your female relatives and friends NOT to venture out wearing gold jewelry. There have been several cases in the Midlands where opportunist hooligans have attempted to capitalize on rocketing gold prices by robbing Punjabi ladies of their necklaces and bangles.
