I REFER to the letter “Early Sikhs were police, convicts and mercenary soldiers” by Dr Ranjit Singh Malhi (The Star, May 8).
I have not seen the video he referred to and as such I have no comments on it. His article seems very factual but sad to say it has one statement that is grossly misleading and perhaps even slanderous: “... there were in 1857 about 60–70 Sikh convicts in Singapore”.
