Jagtar Singh Johal case - Foreign Secretary David Cameron meets family and MP

David Cameron this morning met the family and MP of Jagtar Singh Johal.

“Jagtar’s family not only deserve answers from
@David_Cameron to justify the UK Government approach to a British national being tortured and arbitrarily detained for over 6 years in an Indian jail, they also need a new strategy to secure his speedy release and return to Scotland to be with his family.”

“Jagtar’s MP, @MartinJDocherty has been doing a fantastic job to raise his case at every opportunity, but the UK Government has failed for over 6 years to take the tough action the Foreign Minister promised in the UK Parliament within weeks of his abduction and torture.”

“The British Sikh community and the wider British public expect better from the UK Government to protect British nationals. The jury is out if David Cameron can do the decent thing by using his experience to secure Jagtar’s release where other Foreign Secretaries and PMs have failed.”
