Kirpal Singh body arrives |
Just like with the death of Sarabjit Singh in 2013, Kirpal Singh`s death recently was also in circumstances that don`t quite match with the causes of death cited by Pakistan.Kirpal was lodged next to Sarabjit in Lahore`s Kot Lakhpat jail. Kirpal`s nephew Ashwani said his uncle has also given up his life for the nation. As he was the only witness in Sarabjit Singh`s death, the Pakistan government feared this revelation (the truth about how Sarabjit died) so they plotted to kill him. irpal, who died on April 11 at Jinnah Hospital, was brought back to India on April 19.Pakistani authorities have attributed Kirpal`s death to a heart attack, but family members allege torture and foul play. Kirpal had crossed over to Pakistan on February 29, 1992 and was arrested on charges of carrying out a bomb explosion and spying. He was sentenced to death. Later, Pakistan`s high court acquitted Kirpal on the bomb explosion charges but did not rescind his death sentence in the spying case.
