Indian killed in Pakistan

Attack on a INDIAN, Is an Attack On INDIA

LAHORE | 2 May 2013 | HE News Bureau:: Sarabjit Singh, the Indian death row convict who was was brutally assaulted by jail inmates, died at Lahore’s Jinnah hospital late on Wednesday night.

The head of medical board supervising Sarabjit’s treatment confirmed his death.

Sarabjit Singh’s death occurred at 1 am (Pakistani time), the head of the medical board said.

Sarabjit Singh, 49, sustained several injuries, including a fractured skull, when six prisoners attacked him on April 26 after Friday Prayer in Pakistan’s Kot Lakhpat Jail. He was seriously hit on the head with bricks.

He had been on ventilator life support since then.

Late on Wednesday night his condition was described as “serious and critical” by the external affairs ministry.

As Sarabjit’s condition deteriorated, Pakistan announced that it was “positively considering” India’s request to repatriate him.

Earlier, India had strongly asked Pakistan to immediately release Sarabjit for best available treatment after he slipped into a “non-reversible” coma at the Lahore hospita, saying this is not the time for invoking “legal and bureaucratic reasons”.

Sarabjit was languishing in Pakistan jail since 1990.

Sarabjit Singh, an Indian farmer crossed Indian Border ignorantly and suspected and caught by Pakistan authority as spy after a blast in Lahore and some other places in 1990.

Singh had been attacked by some fanatic Islamic  prisoners at Kot Lakhpat Jail after Friday prayer in Lahore last week on 26th April and was seriously injured by stabbing with  sharp metal sheets, iron rods,blades and bricks to kill him as an revenge of recent hanging of two terrorists, viz, Ajmal Amir Kasab and Afzal Guru in India.

Sarabjit was also threatened at first after the hanging of Amir Ajmal Kasab for his leading connection with 26/11 Mumbai terrorist attack. But, due to the indulgence of the Jail authority, the fanatic Muslim prisoners of the Kot Lakhpat Jail hatched another plan to kill Sarabjit Islamically inside the jail relating their unbearable intolerance affected after the hanging of Afzal Guru, who attacked Indian Parliament in 2001.

Just three days before the heinous Islamic attack inside a prison in Pakistan by Muslim zealots upon a non Islamic convict, Amer Aftab and Mudassar, two fellow prisoner threatened Sarabjit for dire consequences. But, the Muslim jailor and wardens took no precaution for that. As a result, within some days under the leadership of Aftab and Mudassar,  Sarbjit was stabbed, mutilated, thrashed and hit dangerously on skull by six fellow Muslim prisoners with raising slogans ~ “Naraye Taqbeer, Allha ho Akbar. Pakistan Zindabad. India Murdabad. Hindu-Sikh kutto ko khatam karo khatam karo”. (The only mighty slogan- Allah is Great. Long Live Pakistan. Go to hell India. Finish all Hindu-Sikh dogs for ever.)

Sarabjit lost his battle for life after four days in Jinnah Hospital where he was admitted for an absurd recovery.

Security around the hospital has been tightened. The officials from the Jinnah hospital initially tried to prevent the news from leaking out but the doctors confirmed his demise at 1 am.

In light of Sarabjit’s worsening condition, India had earlier contacted Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Pakistan to request consular access which had been granted.

According to the prosecution, Sarabjit had illegally crossed into Pakistan from Kasur on August 29, 1990.

He was arrested on charges of conducting four bomb blasts in Faisalabad, Multan and Lahore in 1990. His counsel claimed it was a case of mistaken identity.

Singh’s security was tightened after the recent execution in India of Afzal Guru, who was convicted of involvement in the 2001 terror attack on the parliament.
Singh’s mercy petitions were rejected by courts and former President Pervez Musharraf.
The outgoing PPP-led government put off Singh’s execution for an indefinite period in 2008.
This type of attack and murder can be happened in Pakistan only, where the Jihad in Prison on run and may be termed as “Prison Jihad”. [With input from PTI).
