Jagtar Singh Johal has been in prison without trial for nearly 2,000 days.
A family of a Dumbarton man languishing in an Indian prison for almost 2,000 days say it could be 40 years before he learns his fate.
Gurpreet explained: "We never thought that we'd still be in this position 2,000 days later when Jagtar was first arrested. We just want this over and for him to come home." His case was last year raised in Westminster but his family are urging them to do more. Gurpreet said: "If the Indians want they can make this case fast. It's within the constitution.Human rights organisation Reprieve has been working to campaign for his release.
She added: "The plain truth is that a blameless British citizen has been locked up in an Indian jail for five years and counting, and he will only be released when the UK Government intervenes decisively to bring him home."
