America’s first turbaned Sikh police officer Sandeep Singh Dhaliwal has been shot in Texas during a traffic stop. Harbhajan Singh has expressed his grief on Twitter and requested US President Donald Trump to do justice.

Sandeep, who was in his 40s, was a veteran police officer who had been working in the department in Texas. He stopped the car of a couple. While both of them were getting out, one of them shot Sandeep at least twice in a ruthless, cold-blooded way. The police department has recognized the shooter and has captured his image through Sandeep’s dashcam video.

Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said, “They immediately looked at his dashcam to see what the suspect looked like, they took a photo of the suspect on the scene with their phone and immediately got that out to our intel people.

When the news broke out, Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh was very sad with the incident. He expressed his grief on Twitter and asked US President Donald Trump to instruct the authority and bring justice to the police officer.

His tweet read, “Very sad to hear this..America’s first turbaned Sikh police officer, Sandeep Singh Dhaliwal shot dead on Friday, during a traffic stop in Northwest Harris County in Houston, Texas. @realDonaldTrump president must instruct the authority to find the culprit and do the justice.
