Citing that there was a cultural context to Singh's offending, the judge said: “Your offending cannot be divorced from your culture and community”.
Woolford said the case had “caused great damage to the Sikh community” and deep divisions.
“You have much to repair in your community.”
Six men were found guilty after the jury trial last year, including 40-year-old Gurinder Atwal, who was found guilty on 13 charges and Malkeet Singh on six charges.
On Gurinder, the judge said he was one of the two most culpable of the offenders and could have been liable to 14 months imprisonment but sentenced him to six months community detention and 200 hours community work on each charge to be served concurrently.
Malkeet Singh was sentenced to three months community detention and 200 hours community work.
51-year-old Paramjit Singh, convicted on one charge, was sentenced to 300 hours community work and the 31-year-old Mandeep Singh was sentenced to 200 hours' community work.
42-year-old Virender Singh, convicted on one charge, received 200 hours community work.
