FULL TITLE: Sikh man pulled off Greyhound bus after being falsely accused of terror bomb threat - before being held for 30 hours by police and photographed without his turban
A Sikh man is demanding authorities bring charges against a woman who falsely accused him of making a bomb threat and led to him being pulled off a Greyhound bus at gunpoint, detained for 30 hours and photographed without his turban.
Daljeet Singh, who is from the Punjab region of India, had been travelling by Greyhound from Phoenix, Arizona, to Indianapolis, Indiana, on February 21, when another passenger reported he was 'acting weird'.

I know the Sikhs have this rule of never cutting any hair at all. That is their choice to be made. But if they walk around American neighborhoods looking like this guy, with most of his face concealed, they will stick out and make people worried.
The smart thing to do is to assimilate, while in public, otherwise don’t complain.
