Amritsar/Lahore: The distraught family of Indian
death row prisoner Sarabjit Singh, who was
brutally assaulted in a Lahore jail last week, is
likely to return home on Wednesday after
doctors have reportedly indicated that he was
"clinically dead". Raj Kumar Verka, vice chairman of the National
Commission for the Scheduled Castes, said in
Amritsar Tuesday that he spoke to Sarabjit's
sister Dalbir Kaur who told him that doctors have
told her that Sarabjit was "brain dead". "I think that Sarabjit had died earlier. Why did the
Pakistan government have to do this drama (of
allowing the family to visit him in Lahore) when
he was already gone? They sought her
permission to remove him from the ventilator,"
Verka, who was instrumental in securing visas for four members of Sarabjit's family from the
Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi on
Saturday, told media. Sarabjit's lawyer Awais Sheikh told a news
channel from Lahore that Sarabjit's sister had
expressed the family's desire to return to India. "After the doctors told her about Sarabjit's
condition, she first told me that they wanted to
go back today (Tuesday). But later, in their hotel,
they said that they will go back tomorrow
(Wednesday) morning," Sheikh told the channel. Sarabjit Singh, 49, was admitted to a Lahore
hospital in a critical condition after a vicious
attack on him by fellow prisoners at the Kot
Lakhpat Jail April 26. He has been on ventilator
support ever since. India Monday appealed to Pakistan for Sarabjit's
release even while a medical board in Pakistan
said that he would continue to get treatment in
Pakistan and not shifted out. The ministry of external affairs in New Delhi had
asked Pakistan to take a "sympathetic and
humanitarian" view on Sarabjit. Dalbir Kaur, Sarabjit's wife Sukhpreet Kaur and
daughters Swapandeep and Poonam, crossed
from the Attari-Wagah border checkpost into
Pakistan Sunday afternoon to visit him in a
Lahore hospital. He has been on death row in Pakistan since 1990
after being convicted by Pakistani courts for
bomb blasts in Lahore and Multan, which left 14
people dead.
Sarabjit's family claims he is innocent, and that he
crossed over to Pakistan in August 1990 in an inebriated state and was arrested there.
Police in Pakistan, however, claimed that Sarabjit
Singh, known there as Manjit Singh, was
involved in terrorist strikes.

maar diya use pakistaniyon ne :\

the man was a convicted terrorist; it's probably easier for him and easier for the Pakistani exchequer that he just 'went'

by the way, what is "National Commission for the Scheduled Castes" and why in God's name are they commenting on this and not ministry of foreign affairs :lol:

it's funny to see indians showering the man with sympathy but then growling crazily when questions about Afzal Guru's hanging are brought up. smells like hypocrisy to me -- but not entirely surprising of course.
 
Doctors did ask the family whether they wanted the ventilator to be turned off, it was also reported in our media, but not the clinically dead part.

According to doctors yesterday, he was gonna be operated in a few days.

Afzhal guru was not bludgeoned to death in prison.

He paid for his crimes for coldbloodedly mudering scores of innocent unsuspecting Pakistanis.

I would have loved to see him hanged, and face justice, instead of being given a terrible death by inmates.

Terrorists don't rest in peace, nor do i have any sympathy.
 
either hang him or jail him.. u dont jail him for 35 years and then kill him .. shame on everyone who is saying "he left"

What to expect from a place where Muslims are slaughtering each other every day ... what chance would a Kaffir have.

Anyway, I wonder if Pakistani patients coming to India for medical treatment will be as happy this incident as the PDF ghazis.
 
35 years? wasnt he caught in 1990? ... u indians off all shouldnt talk about shame..

look who is talking :omghaha:

They are not coming with intention of bomb blasts and spying. Don't forget that Pakistan welcomes thousands of 'Singh' tourists every year but we won't tolerate a terrorist and spy.
