The Jamaat said that the Muslim community of India stands shoulder to shoulder with their Sikh brothers and sisters in their hour of grief and extend condolences to the families of those who died in this attack and prays for the speedy recovery of those who are injured.
JIH President Syed Sadatullah Hussaini said: "We are extremely saddened by the brutal attack on the Sikh community in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Those who are behind this attack must be brought to justice and deserve strict punishment."
