TL;DR Summary

Gunmen shot and killed a member of Pakistan’s minority Sikh community, Manmohan Singh, in an overnight attack in Peshawar. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the killing, saying Singh had been a follower of what it called a “polytheistic” Sikh sect in Peshawar. It's the third killing of a Sikh community member this year in Pakistan. Most Sikhs migrated to neighboring India in 1947, but thousands stayed in Pakistan, where they generally live peacefully.
