Chandigarh: The case of Indian prisoner Sarabjit Singh, who is on a death row in a Pakistani jail for his alleged involvement in 1990 serial blasts in Lahore and Multan, appears to be one of mistaken identity, former Pakistani minister and U.N. Human Rights Council advisory committee member Ansar Burney said here on Friday.
“Prima facie, his [Sarabjit’s] case appears to be that of mistaken identity,” Mr. Burney told reporters here after discussions with the Punjab State Human Rights Commission chairperson and its other members.
He had said he would soon take up the issue of Sarabjit with the new government in Pakistan. |
