Pakistani lawyer’s book on Sarabjit Singh
Pakistani advocate Awais Sheikh’s book "Sarabjit Singh: A case of mistaken identity" is being launched in India, in Delhi on Jan 5, Amritsar 6th, Chandigarh 7th, Jaipur 9th, Lucknow 11th, Patna 13th, Kolkata 15th and Mumbai 17th.
The people of South Asia have “suffered because the governments of Pakistan and India have failed to shed their legacies of hatred and mistrust to forge ties of friendship and cooperation,” writes well known journalist Zubeida Mustafa in the preface.
“One victim of this failure has been a man called Sarabjit Singh. According to the author of this book, Awais Sheikh, Sarabjit, who has been charged with espionage and has languished in a Pakistani prison for 22 years, is actually a case of mistaken identity. What is more important is that it emerges clearly that Sarabjit has not received a fair trial. …The quirks of international relations and a flawed legal system have combined to determine the unhappy fate of this man. Justice demands that it must not be so.”
A 22-member Pakistani delegation expected to participate in the book launch along with Awaish Sheikh, includes lawyers, businessmen, and other India-Pakistan peace activists. Their travel depends on the visas coming through in time, which at the time of writing, are still not certain.
