Delhi High Court Grants Bail to British National Jagtar Singh Johal in UAPA CasesPreviousNext

The Delhi High Court granted bail to British national Jagtar Singh Johal in seven cases related to alleged targeted killings in Punjab under the UAPA. Johal, arrested in 2017 and facing trial by the National Investigation Agency, had previously been denied bail, with the Supreme Court directing a fresh hearing. His detention drew international attention, including from the UN and former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson. The court's decision clears the way for his release pending trial outcomes.
