LAHORE – Pakistan’s first Sikh police officer Gulab Singh Shaheen says he was forcibly evicted from his house in Lahore’s Dera Chahal along with his children and wife, following a property dispute with the government.
Taking to social media on Tuesday, Singh claims he was evicted by Evacuee Trust Property Board (ETPB), the parent body of Sikh Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (PSGPC).
“My turban was forced open and hair was untied,” Singh says in one of the videos he shared on Facebook.
In a video, Singh can be seen pleading to police to give him ‘at least 10 minutes’ to be in the place where they have been staying since 1947.
Singh, later, told the media that ETPB secretary Tariq Wazir thrashed him.
He has also appealed to Sikhs across the world to help him and take note of disrespect to a Sikh’s hair and turban.
In 2011, Gulab Singh had filed a case against Syed Asif Akhtar Hashmi for illegal selling of the Gurudwara property. In February 2018, the Supreme Court of Pakistan held Hashmi, then Chairman of Evacuee Trust Property Board (ETPB), responsible for illegal selling of gurudwara lands.
