Vance defends 'righteous anger' over white English teen's death in police custody after Sikh murderer falsely cried racism



Vice President JD Vance and the U.S. State Department have weighed in on the British scandal surrounding the murder of English teen Henry Nowak and the systemic issues that Nowak's mistreatment at the hands of police have illuminated.

Quick background

Nowak, 18, was fatally stabbed in an unprovoked attack on Dec. 3, 2025, by a knife-wielding Sikh named Vickrum Digwa. Adding grievous insult to injury, Digwa told police that he had acted defensively — that Nowak was a racist who had called him a "Paki" and attacked him.

The police officers from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary who arrived on the scene reflexively accepted the Sikh's false claim that the dying teen was a racist aggressor, arrested and handcuffed Nowak based on those false accusations, and then dismissed his final pleas.

Digwa was convicted of murder last week and sentenced on Monday to a minimum of 21 years in prison.

Unlike Nowak's killer, the scandal surrounding his death is not going away anytime soon.

Following the release of horrifying bodycam footage showing Nowak's undignified death in the custody of members of Southampton police, multitudes of Britons took to the streets of southern England in protest, demanding the termination and/or prosecution of the officers involved, one of whom has resigned.

British politicians meanwhile sounded off about the discriminatory policies and practices that lay the groundwork for the teen's mistreatment.

The National Police Chiefs' Council announced amid the protests that it is reviewing its anti-racism guidance, which, as currently worded, explicitly calls for treating people differently on the basis of race:

Our commitment to racial equity means producing equality of policing outcomes for people from different ethnic groups by responding to individuals and communities according to their specific needs, circumstances, and experiences, with understanding that these will be racialised and with the aim of reducing harm. It does not mean treating everyone "the same" or being "colour blind" (racial equality).

Criticism from the land of the free

The U.S. State Department chimed in on Thursday, writing on social media, "Ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing are glaring symptoms of civilizational decline. They must be rejected across the West."

"The United States sends our condolences to the family of Henry Nowak and the people of the United Kingdom at this troubling time," added the State Department.

'He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred.'

Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) stressed in response that "Henry Nowak deserved better," and BlazeTV host Auron MacIntyre wrote that "it would be nice to see the State Department treat the UK as a totalitarian terrorist state oppressing its population because that’s obviously true."

The chatter in America has evidently enraged some leftists in the United Kingdom.

Ed Davey, a British politician who serves as leader of the Liberal Democrats in the House of Commons, responded to the State Department's post with apoplexy, writing, "The Trump administration is attacking our democracy. Not in secret, but openly on social media. [U.K. Prime Minister Keir] Starmer needs to show some backbone and call this out today. We can’t turn a blind eye to this blatant interference any longer."

U.S. Under Secretary of State Sarah Rogers calmly reminded Davey that Starmer and other British liberals previously opined on the death of career criminal George Floyd. She also highlighted the markedly different response between those who took to the streets after Floyd's death and those who have done so to protest Nowak's death.

"Protesters mourning Nowak have not ignited infrastructure, murdered anyone, or otherwise cut an antisocial swathe of destruction through the UK," wrote Rogers. "To the extent any of them care what America thinks, we urge them to remain peaceful — and we expect they will. Just like Henry Nowak and just like Americans, ordinary Brits have been slandered as racist. Thus violent. They’re not."

On Friday, Vance underscored in a scathing message that Nowak's death was an indictment of Britain itself.

"Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit," wrote the American vice president. "His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it."

In a message sure to prickle Starmer and others who have been clutching pearls over Reform U.K. party leader Nigel Farage's recent call for "pure, cold rage" over the Nowak case, Vance noted further, "Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response — the only response — is righteous anger."

After emphasizing that the Trump administration has taken meaningful steps to stop the flow of mass migration and defend American sovereignty, Vance noted, "It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody — nobody — should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul."

Amnesty International frets about 'racial justice' again — just not for white people



Vickrum Digwa, the Sikh who fatally stabbed and maligned white 18-year-old Henry Nowak in the U.K. in December, was convicted of the teen's murder last week and sentenced on Monday to a minimum of 21 years in prison.

The British public now wants accountability for the police officers who responded to the scene of Nowak's murder — those who reflexively accepted the Sikh's false claim that the dying teen was a racist aggressor, arrested and handcuffed Nowak based on those false accusations, and then dismissed his final pleas.

'They just hate white people.'

Following the release of bodycam footage showing Nowak's undignified death in the custody of members of the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary — one of whom has resigned — hundreds of Britons took to the streets of southern England in protest. Politicians, meanwhile, sounded off about the discriminatory policies and practices that lay the groundwork for the teen's mistreatment.

Amnesty International decided to chime in on Tuesday with a tone-deaf statement that critics seized upon as further evidence of the organization's ideological capture and moral bankruptcy.

Rather than condemn the police's treatment of Nowak, Amnesty International — a London-headquartered NGO that is purportedly committed to challenging "injustice wherever it exists," confronting "uncomfortable truths," and pushing for "transformative change, even when it's unpopular or politically inconvenient" — condemned the reactions from right-leaning politicians.

"At a time when hate crimes are rising, and violence and fear are becoming a daily reality for people of colour and migrants, calls for 'cold, hard rage' are completely reckless," stated Amnesty International.

The "cold, hard rage" quote derives from a statement from Reform U.K. Party leader Nigel Farage: "The fear of being called racist was greater than dealing with Henry Nowak's murder. We should respond to this with pure cold rage. Britain's historic way of life is being thrown away."

While acknowledging that Nowak's murder "is an awful tragedy," Amnesty International said that "irresponsible narratives of two-tier policing seek to sow division and fly in the face of decades of evidence of institutional failure within policing and disparities faced by racialised communities. This includes many cases of deaths in police custody for which meaningful steps towards accountability are long overdue."

Amnesty International filed this reality-averse statement under "racial justice."

Charlie Weimers, a Swedish member of the European Parliament, said in response to the NGO's statement, "Amnesty has been morally bankrupt for a long time. A pure left-wing organization."

"Amnesty International lost its moral compass many years ago," wrote former Canadian Defense Minister and Alberta Premier Jason Kenney. "Sad that an organization that used to be hugely effective in advocating for prisoners of conscience was coopted to become a boringly predictable voice for the left's omnicause."

Amnesty International has in recent years expanded its advocacy to include championing abortion, pushing climate alarmism, and advancing the cause of LGBT cultural imperialism.

Turning Point USA contributor Jack Posobiec emphasized, "It's not complicated. They just hate white people."

Amnesty International was hardly alone in its effort this week to gaslight the public about two-tier policing in the United Kingdom.

Nigel Farage demanded in parliament on Wednesday that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer "end this divisive practice of two-tier policing and make sure that all British citizens are treated the same."

The leftist prime minister, who briefly expressed horror this week over Nowak's mistreatment by police, responded by saying, "I don't believe there's two-tier policing in this country." He proceeded to accuse Farage of attempting to exploit the tragedy.

While Starmer is evidently keen to pretend the U.K. doesn't practice two-tier policing, the National Police Chiefs' Council has announced it is reviewing its anti-racism guidance that, as currently worded, explicitly calls for treating people differently on the basis of race:

Our commitment to racial equity means producing equality of policing outcomes for people from different ethnic groups by responding to individuals and communities according to their specific needs, circumstances, and experiences, with understanding that these will be racialised and with the aim of reducing harm. It does not mean treating everyone "the same" or being "colour blind" (racial equality).

Knife-wielding Sikh reaps whirlwind after butchering English teen Henry Nowak, falsely accusing him of racism



A blade-brandishing Sikh named Vickrum Digwa has finally been brought to justice after a deadly attack on a white teenager in the U.K. who seemed to be minding his own business.

On December 3, 2025, after a night out with his soccer team, 18-year-old Henry Nowak started for his home in Portswood, a suburb of Southampton, England. While happily singing to himself and sending Snapchat videos to friends, the English teen encountered Digwa.

In an unprovoked and vicious attack, the Sikh stabbed the University of Southampton finance student repeatedly with an eight-inch blade — a blade that Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, would ultimately hide in an effort to aid her killer kin.

'In the moments before he lost consciousness, [Nowak] had been handcuffed and arrested.'

When police arrived on the scene of the attack, the killer and some of his family members told officers that Digwa was the real victim — that Nowak, then drowning in his own blood, was the real aggressor and a racist who had knocked his turban off.

Officers from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary proceeded to arrest and handcuff the dying Nowak. The handcuffs were removed only after the "severity of his condition was becoming clear," police alleged.

While police clearly entertained Digwa's tall tale, the jury in the Sikh's murder trial rejected it outright, convicting him on Thursday of murder and carrying a knife in public. The murderer's mother was found guilty of assisting an offender.

In his closing remarks, prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg said that Digwa — who stabbed Nowak five times, including in the chest, in the face, and twice in back of the legs — "chose to be on the streets of Southampton with a 21cm knife. He wasn’t at a temple; he had been helping with his brother’s work for Deliveroo. This is a man who chooses to sleep in his bedroom with an arsenal of weapons. This is a man who likes weapons."

"Racism was his trump card to try to make sure what he had done was lawful. We say that was a wicked lie about a dying man," said Lobbenberg.

"This is not a case about racism. This is a case about murder."

The murderer will be sentenced on Monday.

Robert France, the temporary deputy chief constable for the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary, apologized for police's grievous mistreatment of Nowak as he lay dying but suggested that police couldn't have saved his life.

"I am sorry that in the moments before he lost consciousness, [Nowak] had been handcuffed and arrested," France said in a video statement on Thursday. "The facts heard in court should leave no doubt in anyone's mind who was lying to officers that night and why we didn't immediately understand what had happened."

"During the 999 call, when officers first arrived at the scene, and even when Henry's condition was deteriorating quickly, his killer continued to divert the blame, obstruct our enquiries, and never admit the serious harm which had been done," said France.

Elon Musk, Tommy Robinson, British lawmakers, and others have demanded accountability from the police over what Robinson called their "f**king outrageous" abuse of Nowak.

According to France, the constabulary has referred itself to the Independent Office for Police Conduct, a watchdog that will supposedly conduct an independent investigation into officers' response to the incident.

After Digwa's guilty verdict, the United Kingdom's Sikh Federation issued a statement both complaining about the "abuse and hate" the Sikh community allegedly faced during the trial and clarifying that the British law permitting Sikhs to carry a kirpan knife for religious reasons does not allow for its use as "an offensive weapon" in an act of violence.

Musk seeks justice for British teen who died in police custody after being accused of racism by Sikh suspected murderer



Blood has begun to boil in response to the damning revelations about the unprovoked butchery of 18-year-old Englishman Henry Nowak, his apparent post-stabbing traducement by Sikh suspect Vickrum Digwa, and his bloody death in Southampton police custody.

Tommy Robinson, an activist who has been highly vocal about the fallout of mass immigration and the failure of multiculturalism in England, said the evidence presented in Digwa's murder trial is "f**king outrageous."

'Will the anti-racism movement even bat an eyelid?'

Former Trump adviser and Tesla CEO Elon Musk called Nowak's alleged treatment by police "unconscionable."

"This poor boy was running away from someone who stabbed him & stole his phone, but the police in the UK attacked him instead of his murderer!" Musk claimed.

Musk has vowed to "fund a wrongful death lawsuit against these disgusting excuses for law enforcement," adding that "they damn well better have been fired."

The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary, which oversees Southampton, noted in a release several days after Nowak's slaying — a release that was recently scrubbed from the department's website — that officers responded around 11:30 p.m. on Dec. 3, 2025, to reports of an altercation taking place in Portswood, a suburb of Southampton, England.

The constabulary stated that officers found Nowak with multiple stab wounds; that he was pronounced dead on the scene; and that Digwa and his mother, Kiran Kaur, were charged in connection with the Englishman's death.

Of course, there was far more to the story.

Prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg provided the jury in Digwa's trial with additional insights into Nowak's demise, alleging, for example, that:

  • Nowak — on his way home from a night out with his soccer team during which he consumed less than the drink-drive limit — was happily singing to himself and sending Snapchat videos to friends when he encountered Digwa;
  • Nowak captured footage on his phone of Digwa openly carrying around an 8-inch Sikh blade, in addition to the smaller kirpan blade he was also carrying around his neck;
  • Nowak's phone containing the damning footage — including a clip where the suspect states, "I am a bad man" — was ultimately found in Digwa's pocket;
  • Neighbors supposedly did not see the attack but heard Nowak declare that he had been stabbed and was dying;
  • The victim, spouting blood, attempted to climb a fence to escape his attacker, only to have the Sikh alleged assailant "aggressively pursue him";
  • Digwa "didn't seek help for the man he had injured with his sizeable knife, instead he accused him of being a racist and being drunk";
  • Digwa's mother was captured on video taking the murder weapon back to the family home where it was "stashed among an arsenal of weapons at the home";
  • Analysis found DNA from the mother, hairs from Digwa, and blood from Nowak on the knife; and
  • Digwa declined to comment in a police interview following the stabbing but provided a prepared statement claiming that "Henry Nowak had subjected him to a drunken, racist attack," in response to which he "stabbed out twice with his kirpan."

Jurors were shown police bodycam footage of Nowak's arrest. The footage shows police first finding Nowak leaning against a wall, being propped up by the suspect's father, the Daily Echo reported.

Nowak, who can be heard on the footage saying he "can't breathe," according to the Daily Echo, is handcuffed while on his side and bleeding out. After an officer informs the victim that he is under arrest on suspicion of assault, Nowak repeatedly states that he has been stabbed.

According to the Daily Echo, a male voice responds at one point: "I don't think you have, mate."

Only after the pierced Briton collapsed did police reportedly start administering first aid. By the time a doctor was flown in by helicopter, the young man had perished.

"A student was stabbed with a 'shashtar' knife on a night out. As he lay bleeding to death, his attacker claimed he'd racially abused him, so the police handcuffed him. Henry Nowak choked to death, in a puddle of his own blood under arrest for 'racism', in Britain, in 2025," wrote British politician Robert Jenrick, a Reform UK member of parliament.

"Will there be protests at his death? Will the anti-racism movement even bat an eyelid?" Jenrick continued. "I suspect not. They've totally lost the plot."

The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary did not respond to Blaze News' request for comment, nor did the councilors and the member of parliament who oversee Portswood.

Fatally stabbed British teen bled out in cop's handcuffs after Sikh suspected murderer cried racism



A 23-year-old Sikh man is on trial in the United Kingdom for the December murder of an 18-year-old Englishman.

Vickrum Digwa is accused of fatally slashing and stabbing first-year Southampton University student Henry Nowak of Essex. Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, is also on trial for conspiring with her son after the fact by allegedly removing the murder weapon from the scene of the attack.

Already in the trial, prosecutors have furnished members of the jury with plenty of insights into Nowak's death — alleging, for example, that:

  • Nowak encountered Digwa on his way home from a night out with his soccer team, during which he consumed less than the drink-drive limit;
  • Nowak captured footage on his phone of Digwa openly carrying around an 8-inch Sikh blade, extra to the smaller kirpan blade he was also carrying around his neck;
  • Nowak's phone containing the damning footage was ultimately found in the suspected killer's pocket;
  • the victim, spouting blood, desperately attempted to climb a fence to escape his attacker, only to have the alleged Sikh killer "aggressively pursue him";
  • Digwa's mother was captured on video taking the murder weapon back to the family home;
  • Digwa told his brother while in police custody that he stabbed the victim multiple times; and
  • analysis found DNA from the mother, hairs from Digwa, and blood from Nowak on the knife.

One of the more troubling allegations actually concerns the conduct of the British police who first arrived on the scene.

Around 11:30 p.m. on Dec. 3, 2025, police were called to the scene of an altercation taking place on Portswood's Belmont Road.

Digwa presented himself to the first officers on the scene as the victim, telling them that he was "racially abused and attacked by a drunken man," prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg told jurors Thursday.

"He didn't seek help for the man he had injured with his sizeable knife; instead he accused him of being a racist and being drunk," added Lobbenberg, reported the Daily Mail.

According to the prosecutor, police handcuffed Nowak while he was dying from four stab wounds including two wounds to the back of his legs and one in the lung. Only when the pierced and bleeding Briton collapsed did police reportedly start administering first aid.

Digwa's lawyer, Jeremy Wainwright, claimed that the alleged murderer was carrying a dagger "for religious purposes" and had acted in the "heat of the moment" in self-defense — a statement that jurors might have difficulty believing on account of the wounds on the back of the victim's legs.

'His story will not be buried.'

Wainwright also strongly insinuated that his client was responding to a "racially motivated attack" by the dead and unarmed Englishman.

"You will be shocked and upset when you see the state of Henry Nowak and when you hear what's shouted at what is tragically a dying man," said Wainwright. "But did Digwa and his brother at the time realize they were dealing with a dying man, or was their anger generated by someone who was drunk, who had racially attacked them, and they weren't aware of the extent of those injuries?"

In light of the revelations about the dying victim's treatment by Hampshire Police, Turning Point UK and other critics have called for the termination of the officers responsible and for the department to "apologize for their disgraceful behavior believing false allegations of racism, over a man who had been violently stabbed."

Hampshire Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

The victim posthumously maligned by the suspect and his attorney was, according to the Villarrealgorithm CF and Southampton University Football Club, "the kind of lad who, when he walked into a room, instantly lifted the mood. Henry had a big heart and an even bigger personality, and he will be incredibly missed by everyone."

Nowak's mother noted in the wake of his death, "Our lives are irreparably changed. Our hearts are broken beyond repair. But his name will not fade. His story will not be buried."

On July 11, Nowak's family and friends will join others at Aveley Football Club for a celebrity charity soccer match in honor of the young man and his memory.

DOJ accuses Indian national of recruiting undercover DEA agent in effort to assassinate American on US soil



The Department of Justice has charged an Indian agent for allegedly working with his government to execute a political assassination on American soil.

The murder plot might have proven successful like the corresponding assassination of a Canadian citizen in June; however, Nikhil Gupta, a 52-year-old Indian national, allegedly made the error of mistaking an undercover Drug Enforcement Administration agent for a willing accomplice.

FBI Assistant Director in Charge James Smith said in a statement, "Murder for hire is a crime out of a movie, but the plot in this case was all too real." In this case, the movie has the makings of a Bollywood thriller.

The murder plot

An Indian government official who described himself as a "Senior Field Officer" with responsibilities in "Intelligence," orchestrated a nefarious plot to whack an American attorney of Indian origin over his Sikh separatist views and criticism of the Modi regime, according to the indictment.

Senior Biden officials have identified the intended victim as dual U.S.-Canadian citizen Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, reported the Washington Post.

"[Pannun] has publicly called for some or all of Punjab to secede from India and establish a Sikh sovereign state called Khalistan, and the Indian government has banned the Victim and his separatist organization from India," said the indictment.

Pannun was an associate of Hardeeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian citizen who was gunned down on June 18 outside a Sikh temple in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Nijjar was similarly an advocate of Sikh independence and a critic of the anti-Christian Modi regime, which considers both men terrorists.

The Indian government official running the show allegedly recruited Gupta in May to carry out the assassination. Gupta in turn attempted to delegate the dirty deed to an individual whom he figured for a criminal associate, but who was actually a confidential source working for the DEA.

The confidential source played along, introducing Gupta in turn to an undercover DEA officer feigning to be a hitman.

Following some negotiation, the Indian government official reportedly agreed the Sikh attorney's death was worth $100,000 and successfully arranged with Gupta to deliver $15,000 in cash to the purported hitman on June 9.

The Indian official provided Gupta with the victim's home address, his phone number, and details about his daily habits. Gupta allegedly kept his boss in the loop about the progress of the murder plot, sending the Indian official surveillance photographs of the victim.

Gupta allegedly indicated he wanted the faux hitman to carry out the murder as soon as possible, just not around the time of President Joe Biden and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's talks in late June.

While the high-level talks did not commence in earnest until June 21, Hijjar's assassination in Canada on June 18 prompted Gupta to move up the time table, noting there was "now no need to wait," according to the indictment.

Hours after Nijjar's murder, Gupta's boss allegedly sent Gupta a video clip of the victim's slumped over body.

Gupta allegedly told the undercover DEA agent that Nijjar had "also [been] the target" and "we have so many targets."

One of the intended victims appears to have been Bobby Singh, an activist based in Sacramento, California.

Czech authorities arrested Gupta on June 30. He was subsequently extradited to the U.S. and charged with murder for hire as well as with conspiracy to commit murder for hire. Both charges collectively carry a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.

Canadian vindication, American response

Pannun said of the murder plot, "First by assassinating Nijjar in Canada and then attempting to assassinate me on US soil, India under [prime minister Narendra Modi] has extended to the foreign soils its policy of violently crushing the Sikhs movement for right to self-determination," reported the Guardian.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau suggested in September that there were "credible allegations" that New Delhi was behind Nijjar's assassination. The Modi regime did not take the suggestion kindly, calling the claim "absurd," expelling Canadian diplomats and suspending visas between the two countries, reported the National Post.

Amidst the worsening fallout, Canada — home to the largest Sikh population outside of India — suspended a senior Indian diplomat.

Trudeau said this week that the "news coming out of the United States further underscores what we've been talking about from the very beginning, which is that India needs to take this seriously."

"The Indian government needs to work with us to ensure that we're getting to the bottom of this," added Trudeau. "This is not something that anyone can take lightly."

Canada's public safety minister, Dominic LeBlanc, said, "We won't comment on individual cases, obviously, except to say that there is a very, very high level of collaboration between the RCMP, the FBI, between CSIS other intelligence partners in the United States."

The Washington Post reported that the Biden administration learned of the assassination plot in late July. The following month, national security adviser Jake Sullivan raised the matter with his Indian counterpart Ajit Doval, underscoring the need for India to investigate the plot and hold those responsible accountable.

DEA Administrator Anne Milgram said in a statement, "When a foreign government employee allegedly committed the brazen act of recruiting an international narcotics trafficker to murder a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil, DEA was there to stop the plot."

Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen said, "The Department of Justice will be relentless in using the full reach of our authorities to pursue accountability for lethal plotting emanating from overseas."

U.S Attorney Damian Williams of the Southern District of New York said, "We will not tolerate efforts to assassinate U.S. citizens on U.S. soil, and stand ready to investigate, thwart, and prosecute anyone who seeks to harm and silence Americans here or abroad."

How Ethnic Conflict Shaped The Capital Of India

In 'Delhi Reborn,' Hebrew University’s Rotem Geva supplies a concise, perceptive history of how ethnic conflict shaped India's most vital cities.
