Gurudwara Attack

A Punjab Police constable was killed and six others were injured in an exchange of gunfire between two Nihang factions trying to take control of the Gurdwara Sri Akal Bunga Sahib in Sultanpur Lodhi

The miscreants, who were handed over to the police, were released without proper investigation and interrogation, it was alleged

Several blasts were reported near the gurudwara, in the latest targeted attack on a place of worship of a minority community in the Taliban-ruled Afghanistan.

At least two civilians were killed and three security personnel injured after three explosions ripped through a gurdwara in Kabul on Saturday, according to multiple sources

The Islamic State (IS) terror group, which has targeted Sikhs before in Afghanistan, claimed responsibility for the attack

Police have ordered an internal investigation to establish why the warning was not taken seriously enough
