Sikh Federation UK also highlighted that the jury at Southampton Crown Court was told the case ‘was not about Sikhism or racism, but about an unlawful killing’

Prosecutors said Vickrum Digwa, 23, was 'skilled' with blades when he came to murder Henry Nowak, 18, having trained with weapons since he was 12.

A jury is now deciding the case of a Sikh man accused of murdering 18-year-old Henry Nowak after a late-night confrontation in Southampton last year.
