In this powerful special episode of The Phulkaari Podcast, we sit down with Pooja and Nikita Kanda—mother and sister of Ronan Kanda—to talk about the devastating loss of their only son and brother, murdered in 2022 by two Sikh Punjabi boys. Since then, they have led the #JusticeForRonanKanda campaign, calling for awareness, accountability, and change which lead to the introduction of Ronan's Law.
This episode explores the deep and urgent issue of knife crime within South Asian communities. We reflect on a recent incident in Smethwick, where Sikh youth in full Khalsa attire were seen armed with a knife and threatening a young boy with murder over alleged debts. Together, we ask: three years on from Ronan’s death, what—if anything—has the community learned?
