Release Sarabjit on humanitarian grounds: Indian government appeals to Pakistan


NEW DELHI: Reiterating its demand to send Sarabjit Singh to India for medical treatment, the Indian government again appealed to Pakistan to take a 'sympathetic view of the Indian prisoner'.

"In view of the recent tragic events and present circumstances, we once again appeal to the Government of Pakistan to take a sympathetic and humanitarian view of this case, and release Sarabjit Singh," a government source was quoted by NDTV.

The Indian prisoner currently on a death row in Pakistan was admitted to a Lahore hospital after a vicious attack on him at the Kot Lakhpat jail by inmates in Lahore on April 26.


Emphasising on a better medical treatment for the ailing Indian prisoner, the source added, "Transfer Sarabjit to India for best medical treatment."

Following the assault on Sarabjit, a panel of experts was formed to decide whether the Indian death row prisoner, who suffered grievous injuries in the attack, should be sent abroad or a foreign neurosurgeon should be called to Pakistan.

The panel said that the Indian prisoner will continue to receive treatment in Pakistan and that there was no need to send the Indian prisoner abroad for medical treatment.
