Bhai Paramjit Singh Pamma’s Family at the London Protests TodaLONDON, UK—Today, over 300 supporters of Bhai Paramjit Singh Pamma, the Birmingham family man arrested in Portugal at the behest of the Indian Government, campaigned outside the Portugal Embassy in London.
Delegates from the support group managed to speak with the Portuguese Ambassador at the embassy, who agreed that the Portuguese government would pursue India for every document related to the previous case (during his asylum appeal) lodged against Paramjeet Singh in Britain, by the Indian government.

Upkar Singh, a campaigner at the protest said, “These will be compared to the current case being brought against him. This will make everything transparent and have a bearing on the final Portuguese decision.”
Bhai Paramjit Singh has been under detention since December 2015 after a red flag Interpol warrant, requested by the Indian government, was issued and actioned against him when he was visiting Portugal with his family.
A team of Indian police, represented themselves in Portugal last week, before returning to India with their tail between their legs when they were each identified as the accused in torture against Paramjit Singh himself. Cases were immediately submitted to the authorities which means the Indian police members could very well be arrested if they return to Portugal.  Sources reveal that the Punjab Government is in dismay and unsure of sending its own delegation to represent its case on February 15 in Portugal.
A Just Giving page has been created by campaigners, to help financially support the ongoing case in Portugal, to help fight for the return of Paramjit Singh to the UK.
