Call for ‘urgent’ government action over Scot imprisoned in India
A Scottish MP will today call on the UK Government to urgently act on the imprisonment in India of his West Dunbartonshire constituent Jagtar Singh Johal.
SNP MP Martin Docherty-Hughes will use a general debate at Westminster to call for Mr Johal’s immediate release, saying the legal case around his arbitrary detention is now beyond doubt.
Mr Johal was detained under India’s anti-terrorism laws following his arrest, accused of helping fund a Sikh-on-Hindu assassination plot – something he strongly denies.
