Ansar Burney has a lot of questions to answer.
He is focusing so much upon releasing Indian prisoners. Kashmir Singh was just a spy wanted for espionage, however the next dude Sarabjit Singh's wanted for bombings in Pakistan.
I'm glad Musharraf flatly denied Sarabjit's release.
Where are Ansar Burney's efforts to release Pakistanis? The people are on tv and they are saying Ansar Burney is dodging their calls and his personal secretary is giving them lame excuses about when India will be releasing Khalid Mahmood's dead body.

Ansar Burney is bringing Khalid’s dead body. It’s sad that a Pakistani’s life has no value and the whole non-Muslim world is like sacred and their lives are precious.

^^^Its a good step A.Rahman. Especially for those who want peace between the two countries.
If media reports are anything to go by, both countries are guilty of mistreating their prisoners.
IMO, it is a very smart move by Burney, because it puts the ball in India' court, along with the attention of the international media.
India will be compelled to respond positively, in order to prove her commitment to the peace process.
Remember, the world loves acts of humanity, especially those which are publicized well.

4 Pak prisoners release from Indian jails demanded
By Saeed Ahmed
3/9/2008
Rawalpindi
Four Pakistani prisoners who have completed their sentences are still detained in Indian jails and meeting rough treatment at the hands of the concerned police staff, alleged Chief Executive of Human Rights Network Global Foundation, Ulfat Kazmi
He was addressing a news conference here Saturday. He said that families and relatives of these prisoners approached the Foreign Office, Indian High Commission and Red Cross Society to get them released from jails in India but in vain. The relatives are tense due to failure of the Pakistani government to get release of these Pakistani prisoners from the clutches of Indian jails, he added.
He said that release of Kashmir Singh after 35 years by the Pakistani authorities is a good omen, but why Pakistani prisoners are still in the Indian jails?
Giving details, Ulfat Kazmi said that Pakistani prisoners were arrested when they unintentionally entered Indian territory along border to fetch their cattle where the Indian police arrested them by terming them as agents. Pakistani prisoners were tortured badly by Indian police. The prisoners, belonging to Bhagra Memon union council in Ali Bundr, NWFP, were arrested on October 16, 1998. The Indian police deputed at borders did not inform to the Pakistani authorities about their detention.
However, a citizen of Tharparkar who was recently released from jail by the Indian authorities informed about the relatives of the four other Pakistani prisoners detained in Nagar Jail in India. The prisoners include Rahim Khan, s/o Noor Mohammad Bohar (NIC 459-51-012433), Mohammad Baksh, s/o Noor Mohammad, (NIC 457-92-229457), Ali Mohammad, s/o Lal Baksh (NIC 457-45-079834) and Abdul Hanan, s/o Ali Mohammad.
Ulfat Kazmi appealed to the Pakistani government as well as the Red Cross Society to take immediate measures for the early release of the detained Pakistani prisoners who have also completed their sentences on offence of entering the Indian border in 1998. A good number of other Pakistani prisoners are also detained in Indian jails despite completing their sentences.
Kazmi said that Public Safety Act is a big weapon in India under which several persons are arrested on certain charges. He told the newsmen that the addresses as well as other necessary details of the prisoners have been submitted to the Interior Ministry, Red Cross, Foreign Office and the Indian High Commission to get them released.

Islamabad News
Two inmates with different anecdotes
Associated Press of Pakistan
ISLAMABAD: On her arrival in Pakistan, Bhago Begum - pale, frail with a deeply wrinkled face - unveiled heart-rending stories of physical and mental torture and inhuman behaviour meted out to her during her long incarceration in an Indian jail.
Bhago Begum, a Pakistani citizen who was freed last year, termed the conditions in which Pakistani prisoners as 'dreadful'.
She termed the authorities of Indian jails 'heartless' as the Pakistani prisoners remain a target of routine 'physical abuse' and verbal humiliation at the hands of Indian officials. Like Bhago Begum, there are many other Pakistanis who continue to suffer at the hands of Indian authorities without trial. Though the Indian media has frequently highlighted the sufferings of Pakistani prisoners, admitted to hospitals in serious conditions, after being picked up by the Indian intelligence agencies under espionage charges that were never proved in courts, the Indian officials are reluctant to pay heed to the media voice.
On the other side of the border, Indian national Kashmir Singh was pardoned by the government of Pakistan and was released from Pakistani jail last week. On his way home from the Wagah Border, Singh carried memories of 'humane treatment' in Pakistan jails despite being a spy -- a fact he admitted as soon as he returned to India after 35-year imprisonment. The grey-haired Singh looked physically fit and cheerful after his release, in sharp contrast to the miserable condition of Pakistani prisoners languishing in Indian jails without catching any attention from the human rights activists.
"I was a spy," Singh told journalists in India Friday, lamenting that the Indian government did nothing for his family during his long stay in a Pakistani jail. Caught red-handed in Rawalpindi in 1973, he was quoted by the Press Trust of India as saying "I was paid a Rs 400 salary and I went to Pakistan to serve my country." Hale and hearty, Singh walked out to freedom from Kot Lakhpat Jail in Lahore earlier last week while flanked by caretaker Human Rights Minister Ansar Burney, whose intercession led to his release by Pakistan on humanitarian grounds. Eyes blinking with gratitude for a nation that never ceased to be 'friendly and hospitable', Singh crossed the Wagah Border the next day to rejoin his waiting wife and family.
Talking to the media, Singh termed his release a 'humanitarian gift.' He said he had never ever been 'subjected to torture' during his entire period in imprisonment. One of his chums appearing on a private TV channel said he had always been a thin figure but a 'congenial' jail environment in Pakistan enabled him to gain weight.
The internationally publicised event and the jubilation in Singh's home village brought to the spotlight the plight of the Pakistani prisoners languishing in Indian jails. The comparison of his figure and complexion with that of Bhago Begum speaks volumes about the treatment meted out to Pakistani prisoners in India. As per reports, as many as 48 Pakistani prisoners are languishing in jails across Indian Punjab, even after completing their prison terms.
Many of the prisoners have not even been granted consular access, which is mandatory under the international conventions that both Pakistan and India are signatory to. The Asian Age reported a 60-year-old Pakistani, Mukhtar Ahmad of Kasur, currently in Amritsar's high-security central jail, has spent 17 years in prisons across India. He has spent nine years more than his sentence and still there is no sign of his repatriation.
Akbar Ali of Lahore is in Amritsar Jail without any hope of his release. No-one even ponders the prospect of his return to Pakistan because the period of his extra stay is 'barely 16 months' since completing sentence in November 2006.
The jail officials said there were 'helpless' and cannot release the 48 unfortunates because they would be 'guilty' of violating the Foreigners Act the minute they were permitted to step out of the jail premises. "We have no ulterior interest in retaining these people. But we can only follow the instructions from Delhi," said Superintendent SP Singh. And past experience shows that Delhi could well remain silent for years. The apparent lethargy on the part of Indian bureaucracy in processing cases of the 48 Pakistanis in Amritsar Jail is surprising.
Ranjan Lakhanpal, a Chandigarh-based lawyer and civil liberties activist, fought for three years for the release of Fida Hussain and five other Pakistanis who were languishing in Indian jails years beyond their sentences. Lakhanpal said in 1993, the High Court at Chandigarh adopted a humanitarian approach and ordered the prisoners be sent home on the Samjhauta Express with due compensation. "Today, Fida Hussain and his compatriots are safe, happy and with their loved ones," the lawyer said the current bureaucratic position on prisoners is unacceptable under humanitarian law. "How can we not be concerned about their right to liberty? Aren't we the ones who are holding them prisoner," he questioned. And he should know after playing a key role in the repatriation of more than 250 Pakistanis from India, the daily reported.
On the other hand, a 'jail reformation process' is being pursued in Pakistan and various initiatives are being taken by the Ministry of Human Rights, an official said when contacted. As many as 550 juvenile prisoners in Balochistan were recently released on the directives of Ansar Burney, he added. Similarly, cases of a large number of prisoners, in jail for the last 15 to 30 years, have been expedited. Efforts are being made to release mentally retarded and aged prisoners.
The ministry will also pay fines of those jailed for ordinary crimes to clear the way for their release, the ministry official said. Provinces were preparing reports about prisoners who had completed their sentences and were not freed because of their inability to pay fine. The other major initiative is the launching of a skill development programme for female and male prisoners. The programme is aimed at providing an opportunity to prisoners that will bring behavioural changes in inmates by increasing their creative and constructive capacity. Another significant improvement is that prisoners belonging to minority groups will be able to perform their religious rituals at worship places to be set up in jails.

I wouldn't go that far, but I believe he should publicly admit the fact that he didn't do enough investigation into Kashmir Singh and his priorities were not straight and he needs to reassure his countrymen that he would pursue the release of Pakistanis from Indian jails with renewed vigor.Ansar Burney should be tired for treason

wagah india pakistan prisoner - Google News Archive Search
India, Pakistan begin exchanging over 500 prisoners as part of peace process - Forbes.com
what about the 100,000's of innocents and freedom fighters killed by Indians??
and if India will have to pay... what about others?? most countries/regimes don't have a perfect record!!!
Salman,
Prison officials all over the world are generally sadists... they love inflicting pain and torturing people.. it is not only Pakistanis suffering at the hands of Indian Prison officials but Indians too..
an IIT grad recently filed a case against a prison in the court, (he was wrongly arrested on some internet fraud and then let off. the ISP bungled the whole thing).. the conditions he described as an undertrial were enough to make me want to throw up... I can only imagine what a convicted criminal esp a Spy must be going through...

Those who were exchanged earlier those 50 were Mostly Fishermen and that is not a big deal.
And Malang You are dissapointingly rather shamlessly justifying the torture over Pakistani prisoners in Indian Jails.
Indeed the Jails authorities everywhere are brutal But Lets just compare the case of Indian Spy Kashmir Singh who was released by Pakistan.
He was all healthy and cheeful there was no sign of Torture. He also admitted that he was not mistreated.(Even the fact that he was arrested on Spying Charges)
In sharp Contrast to that India Today Handedover the DEAD Body of a Pakistan crickter Lover Kahlid.
Who went to India to watch a India Pakistan cricket series.
The Indian Intellgence Agencies picked him and
Today (Monday March 10, 2008) India handed over dead body of Khalid to Pakistan at Wagha Border.
Khalid was brutally Killed in Indian Jail after burtal torture by Indians.

Pakistan reluctant to take its people back locked in Punjabs jails: Authority Print
JAGMOHAN SINGH
Monday, 10 March 2008
AMRITSAR: Pakistan Government is highly reluctant to take back Pak national internees lodged in the transit camp at Central jail Amritsar, inspite of the fact they have outlived their sentences awarded by the various Indian court of laws.
Some of Pakistani prisoners were languishing behind the Indian bars for the last more than one and half decade.
Talking to Punjab Newsline , Deputy Commissioner Amritsar, Kahan Singh Pannu said, "Section of media in Pakistan has started wrong propaganda about the Pakistan prisoner detained in Indian jails, particularly after the release of Indian Prisoner Kashmir Singh who spent nearly 35 years in the various jails of Pakistan".

Pannu said, " Out of Forty six Pak prisoners Fifteen Pakistani prisoners have been provided 'Councilor Access' by the officials of Pakistan Embassy from New Delhi long back, even all the formalities have been completed with regard to their release, since all the prisoners have completed their sentences.
