Re: Ansar Burney files mercy petition for Sarabjit
Bro you can only challenge a conviction if it is in court. But when the case goes to the President, like Sarabjit’s case, then you can only send mercy appeals.
According to Pakistani news, Sarabjit Singh was not even allowed to challenge his conviction in the Supreme Court because the jail authorities did not bother to send his case to the court.
And here is a link I found on youtube.com, it shows someone saying that he was forced by the pakistani police to testify against Sarabjit Singh:
Re: Ansar Burney files mercy petition for Sarabjit
Poor Sarabjit! now the clowns have got the students protesting Burney's petition ....Pakistan is thirsty for blood and that is that. Who cares if the guy is guilty of anything
Re: Ansar Burney files mercy petition for Sarabjit
you mean the poor guy from Pakistan who didn't have money for the next meal but found enough to travel abroad to watch a cricket match and who said he was walking to a consulate office in a city a few hundred miles away?
And that was enough reason to torture him to death?
Re: Ansar Burney files mercy petition for Sarabjit
^ Ok I don't mean all Pakistan. I read a news item that some students were taking out processions and calling Bureny an Indian agent. Now you tell me, shouldn't students be in the forefront of asking for judicial justice instead of behaving like a lynch mob crying for a hanging?
Look at it from Sarabjit's pov. A minister of Pakistan is openly saying that the case against him is weak. Yet, he is in the gallows!

Don't you think there could be people who think Sarabjit was a convict/terrorist? What is wrong if they believe so and are protesting against Burney's help for him?

Look at it from student's view, they believe he was a terrorist and this ex-minister is trying to help him hence they are calling him Indian agent.
