Delhi High Court denies bail to British Sikh national Jagtar Singh Johal, imprisoned in India under UAPA for targeted killings charges.

The Delhi High Court has denied bail to British Sikh national Jagtar Singh Johal, who has been imprisoned in India for nearly seven years under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA). Johal faces charges related to targeted killings in Punjab from 2016-2017. His family and human rights advocates argue that evidence against him is weak and based on a coerced confession, urging the UK government to intervene in what they describe as a miscarriage of justice.
