Jagtar Singh Johal: Scot released on bail after nine years
Jagtar Singh Johal, a Scottish Sikh activist from Dumbarton, was released on bail in India after nearly nine years of detention without conviction. He was arrested in 2017 over allegations linked to funding violent activities by the Khalistan Liberation Force, which he denies, and remains charged in multiple cases with the potential for the death penalty. His release followed a court ruling, but he faces ongoing legal proceedings and restrictions, with supporters and human rights advocates emphasizing his prolonged detention and claims of abuse.
