Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe joins Downing Street protest demanding return of jailed Scot

Freed political prisoner Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has joined hundreds of protestors at Downing Street demanding the UK Government bring home detained Scottish Sikh Jagtar Singh Johal from India.

The demonstration in London marked five years since the 35-year-old, known as Jaggi, from Dumbarton was arrested. His family claim he was bundled into an unmarked car when he was in Punjab in northern India for his wedding in 2017.

The UK citizen says he has been detained and subjected to torture, including electric shocks, and faces the death penalty over his activism and campaigning for Sikh human rights as a blogger.
