2017 event in Punjab, India
The arrest of Jagtar Singh Johal is an ongoing detainment that began in November 2017 in Punjab, India. According to the human rights organisation Reprieve, UK spy agencies tipped off their Indian counterparts about a key man, "Johal", who was in India. Johal was arrested based on allegations that he was involved in the assassinations of religious and political figures and that he was a member of the Khalistan Liberation Force (KLF). His legal team and supporters claim Johal was tortured and forced to sign a false confession shortly after his arrest, a claim that Indian authorities deny.
