Sikh Dentist's Racial Attacker Found Guilty by UK Court

A UK court has held a 26-year-old white supremacist guilty of attempting to murder a Sikh man in a brutal racial attack at a supermarket in Wales in which the Indian-origin dentist's hand was almost severed.

24-year-old Sarandev Bhambra, a newly qualified dentist, was shopping in a supermarket in the city of Mold, south-west Britain, when the attacker Zack Davies attacked him with a machete and hammer.


Holding Davies guilty of attempt to murder, Judge Rhys Rowlands of Mold Crown Court yesterday sent him to a high security hospital for psychiatric reports to be prepared before the court sentences him on September 11.

Davies, who described ISIS fighter Jihadi John as an "inspiration", showed no emotion as the verdict was read out.


On January 14, Bhandra walked into a supermarket at lunchtime and found himself the victim of the horrifying attack which left him with severe head and back wounds and a machete slash which almost severed his left hand.

CBI today told a Delhi court that no fresh FIR has been lodged against Congress leader Jagdish Tytler, who has been given clean chit in a 1984 anti-Sikh riots case, on allegations of influencing witness and money laundering.

CBI's reply came while responding to the court's query whether the agency has registered any case against Tytler under sections 193 (punishment for false evidence), 195A (threatening a person to give false evidence) of IPC and the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

"An application has been moved on behalf of victim to know from CBI as to whether an FIR or separate complaint has been registered under sections 193 and 195 of IPC and PMLA.

"In this regard question has been asked by the court to the public prosecutor. He says no separate FIR has been filed. The application stands disposed of," Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Saurabh Pratap Singh Laler said.
