Arrest And Detention Of Paramjit Singh In The Punjab

EDM number 870 in 2006-07, proposed by Ken Purchase on 07/02/2007.

That this House notes the many representations to the Foreign Secretary made by British Sikhs on behalf of Paramjit Singh, a British citizen; is dismayed by the continuing detention of Paramjit and the second postponement of his trial; condemns the Punjab police for delaying access by the British High Commission to Paramjit amid the concerns of his family for his safety; calls on the Government to increase its efforts to ensure an expeditious and fair trial; and, in the meantime, further calls on the Government to take steps to ensure Paramjit's health and welfare is not compromised by ill-treatment while he is in custody.

This motion has been signed by a total of 82 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
