Thoughts on what will happen to Jaggi Singh Johal?

He has the best lawyers, its not them but the legal system in India which keeps delaying and adjourning cases. This is a legal as well as a political case. More efforts, especially by Conservative supporters needs to put in, by exerting more pressure on the British Government, by that i mean Boris and the Foreign Secretary.

Brother of Jagtar Singh Johal makes plea amid 'Jaggi's' detention in India

SCOTTISH solicitor Gurpreet Singh Johal has been campaigning for his brother’s release from detention in India for 1500 days.

Jagtar, who was arrested shortly after his wedding in the Punjab region, has been accused of paying £4000 into a murder plot motivated by religion and politics.

His family believe that allegation is related to his online Sikh activism through a website documenting historical violence against Sikhs in India.

After four years, a trial has yet to be held and MPs from across the party spectrum have raised grave concerns, describing his treatment as arbitrary detention.

 

Indian authorities have dismissed criticism and said they have the evidence they need. The UK Government says it is supporting Jagtar and his family.

Today, in a plea to the public, Gurpreet says only public pressure will lead to change.

 

MY brother woke up in an Indian jail cell today. He hasn’t slept in his own bed for 1500 days.

My brother is so many things – a husband, an uncle, a grandson, a friend, a blogger, a researcher, an Arsenal supporter. But he’s not a criminal and he’s not been convicted of anything. Never mind being convicted, no formal charges have been framed against him on the serious allegations alleged him by the Indian state.

 

Jagtar has been subjected to over 235 hearings and to date no evidence has been produced against him nor have any charges been framed on the serious allegations against him. Jagtar has been subjected to continuous adjournments by the Indian authorities.

Our whole family is being punished for something he has not been tried or convicted of and after 1500 days we are still trying to get the UK Government to use the full weight of its diplomatic power to help us bring Jagtar home. A raft of parliamentarians and expert charities agree his treatment is arbitrary detention. Why doesn’t the UK Government agree?

Those 1500 days have gone so slowly, but the world has shifted since Jagtar was abducted off the street just a fortnight after his wedding. We have since been through two prime ministers and four foreign secretaries. We have entered a global pandemic. We have hosted COP26 in Glasgow, the city where my brother was born. How much more will Jagtar miss? How much more of his life will be wasted in a cell in Delhi while ministers sit on their hands?

Last few days there's been alot of awareness for Jaggi in social media and even USA republicans senators have shown support. Its been 1000 days now.

What do you think will happen to him? Had he not been 'British' no doubt he would have been killed by now. 

Either they will Kill him,  rule it as 'suicide', or let him go if British gov put pressure on them ...if they let him go, wont do much damage to India, or bring 'Justice' to Sikhs,  change anything etc..because we are powerless, dont have the Sikh Raaj and have little interests in West for them to care . We are not like Muslims, who have Gulf states Jews etc...

What are your thoughts what will happen to him?
