LONDON (AP) — Police say windows at India’s High Commission in London and at the Consulate General of India in San Francisco were smashed during separate demonstrations by Sikh protesters. London’s Metropolitan Police force said a man was arrested Sunday afternoon on suspicion of violent disorder outside the diplomatic mission, where two security guards were slightly injured. The protesters are believed to be supporters of a Sikh separatist movement seeking to create a new homeland or breakaway state. The Indian government said the lack of security outside the building was unacceptable. The British government and London Mayor Sadiq Khan condemned the incident. A White House National Security Council spokesman also condemned the vandalism.
