Extremist group ‘Sikh Youth UK’ targets students with anti-Muslim film
The extremist organisation Sikh Youth UK has hosted a film demonising Muslims as “predatory sex groomers” at a number of university campuses, including student societies at Coventry, Nottingham, Nottingham Trent, Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield, Brunel, Birmingham City, Birmingham and Aston. The documentary, entitled ‘Misused Trust’, contains the fictional account of a Sikh girl who is seduced by a Muslim grooming gang. The film has been investigated by Ofcom, which received a complaint that it “advocated retaliatory violence as acceptable” and contained “potentially offensive” references to Muslims. Student Rights is deeply disturbed by these revelations. It is especially galling that this group has targeted students on campus and aligned itself with the Far-Right, in this case Tommy Robinson, the former leader of the anti-Muslim English Defence League (EDL). We strongly urge universities and students to monitor future instances of Sikh extremism and anti-Muslim hatred.
