The REAL Story of Sarabjit Singh

You by now have been listening about the New and TRENDING movie SARABJIT and the movie is out as well Featuring RANDEEP HODDA and AISHWARIYA RAI but still many of you would not know the real story of him so in a short and brief context I am going to represent that to you all...!

SOURCE:-

INTERNET-- Read the story on 27 websites for reference and then representing this before you so that it will be brief and appropriate for you all guys to know that exact story. 


INTRODUCTION:-

Sarabjit singh (1963-2013) was an Indian national of terrorism and spying by a Pakistani court. He was tried and convicted by the Supreme Court of Pakistan for a series of bomb attacks in Lahore and Faisalabad that killed 14 bystanders in 1990.Sarabjit claimed he was a farmer who strayed into Pakistan from his village located on the border, three months after the bombings. According to unconfirmed Indian sources, Singh had been a spy for the Indian Research and Analysis Wing intelligence agency and had been working undercover in Pakistan.

After a brief trail in the Lahore High Court ( later directed to the Supreme Court), he was condemned and sentensed to death in 1991, but the sentence was repeatedly postponed by the Government of Pakistan. While in the prison at Kot lakhpat jail, lahore in April 2013, he was attacked by the fellow inmates and dieed six days later at Jinnah Hospital, Lahore.

Strange Fact:-

As their was a Struggle in against to this arrest by Singh's Sister in India and also Indian Government was putting some sort of Governmental pressure on the Government of Pakistan, So it was difficult for the Government of Pakistan to hang him till death, and then a sudden attack on Sarabjit by his fellow prisoners that too after 23 years, Doesn't it sounds Strange????....Some Unknown and Unconfirmed Sources also suggests that It might be an order given to the prisoners to carry out this task by the Government....There is a possibility but no PROOF!!

Arrest and prosecution:-

Singh was caught on an unmarked Indo-Pakistani Border area in Pakistan and arrested by the Pakistan Rangers near Kasur. Singh and his supporters claimed that the arrest was a case of mistaken identity and tha he was only a poor farmer who was drunk and had strayed over the border. His sister said that the family launched a search but could not find any clue to his whereabouts for nine months. After a year they received a letter from Singh, informing them that he had been arrested in Pakistan as Manjit Singh as he hadno identification papers and had been charged by the Lahore police in the bombings. He was convicted of spying and carrying out the bombings. He was convicted out the bombings and was  given the death penalty.

Some sources say that he was initially arrested on charges of illegally crossing the India-Pakistan border. But agter eight days, the Pakistani police charged him with involvement in the 1990 terror blasts which killed 14 people, and had been arrested while returning to India after carrying out the bombings. He was accused of working for the INDIAN INTELLIGENCE SERVICE. He subsequently confessed on camera to the bombings.

It was later reported that a Manjit Singh was later apprehended in Canada and later in India.

DEATH SENTENCE:-

In 1991 Singh was given the death sentence Under Pakistan's army act. His sentence was upheld by the High Court and later by the Pakistan Supreme court. The Supreme Court dismissed the petition to review the death sentence in March 2006 as Singh's lawyer failed to appear for the hearing. Singh said that his appeal had been dismissed by the Pakistan Supreme Court only because of lack of interest by his former lawyer.

Issues with prosecution:-

Pakistani human rights activist Ansar Burney claimed that none of the four First Information Reports filled with regard to the bombings contained Singh's name nor his description and that singh has been arrested on the night of 30 August 1990 at the Kasur borderfor illegally crossing the Indo-pakistani Border. Eight days after, the police implicated him in the terrorist bombings.

A British Lawyer, Jas Uppal, campaigning for his release, pointed to serveral problems with the prosection in the trial. These Problems included:-

1. His identity was never verified or proved in court and no forensic evidence was provided at his trial to link him to the bomb attacks.

2. The trial was conducted in English, which Singh does not speak or understand, and ni interpreter was provided.

3. There was allegations that he was tortured in custody and forced to confess.

4. The trial was "fast-tracked".

5. The main witness repeatedly changed his version of events.

These are some serious issues to be raised. The story continues spend few minutes and also read about his "After Conviction" and "Death" in the Next Page!
