[IHRO] Re : Sikh group in US gets summons against PM The 24-page SFJ complaint alleges that Manmohan Singh, as Finance Minister in early 1990s, had approved and financed the practice of "cash rewards" to members of security forces for allegedly killing Sikhs through extra-judicial means to curb militancy. The complaint also alleges that during his tenure as PM beginning 2004, Manmohan Singh had actively shielded and protected members of his Congress allegedly involved in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. The SFJ plans to hold a "Justice Rally" in front of the White House on Friday during the Obama-Manmohan Singh meeting. Justifying the filing of lawsuit against Manmohan Singh, Pannun said the Prime Minister "should be held accountable before the world community for funding crimes against humanity and protecting security force personnel involved in extra-judicial killings of Sikhs in the state of Punjab". — IANS
