Peshawar Conspiracy Cases

The Peshawar Conspiracy Cases were a set of five cases which took place between 1922 and 1927 in the British Raj.
The defendants in these cases had allegedly snuck into British-controlled India from the Soviet Union "to foment a proletarian revolution against the British imperialist oppressors and restore freedom to the masses." The British Imperial government in the Indian subcontinent was terrified by the idea of the spread of communism in the Raj which would bring freedom to the natives and subvert British interests in India.
It was not the only case which became popular and galvanized the imagination of the young population of the Indian Subcontinent, there were similar such cases. Among them, the Kanpur Bolshevik Case of May 1924 can be quoted as a substantiating case.
