Mandeep Singh’s licence was suspended for two weeks following a complaint from Police Scotland. In May 2019, he refused to change the start time of an All Under One Banner march through Glasgow. Mr Singh was later sentenced to 72 days in prison after pleading guilty to holding a procession not in accordance with council conditions. Glasgow City Council had asked for the event to start at 11am due to concerns over public safety and city centre congestion. The march, which began at 1.30pm, also did not follow the route set out by the council. His solicitor Michael Gallen told licensing chiefs how the incident was a “matter of deep regret” for his client.
