STUPID ALERT: “Racists Graffiti ‘Die Muslims Die’ on Sikh Temple”

From Gazette Live

Threatening graffiti sprayed onto the outside wall of the temple included the phrase ‘white power’ as well as religious-themed profanity

Thugs have daubed racist graffiti on a Sikh temple in Thornaby.

Police are now investigating the vandal attack on the temple on Allensway.

It comes just weeks after thieves struck at the Shri Guru Nanak Gurdwara and Sikh Community Centre, stealing food and clothes.

The threatening graffiti sprayed onto the outside wall of the temple earlier this week included the phrase ‘white power’ as well as religious-themed profanity.

It also targeted Muslims – despite it being a Sikh temple.

Peter Brennan, of the Village Park Resident’s Association (VPRA) reported the graffiti to Stockton Council after being shown it by a fellow committee member from the temple.

He said: “This is absolutely disgusting – people need to be aware of this sort of madness.

“The vandals were obviously ignorant but the hate was real.

“The temple and community centre is a well respected part of our town and community.

“This attack in no way reflects the warm feelings felt towards the Sikh community in Thornaby.”
