PAKISTAN. INDIAN DIPLOMATS VISIT DEATH ROW PRISONER

Indian diplomats met Sarabjit Singh, a prisoner held on death row in Pakistan on bombing and spying charges, saying afterwards that they were hopeful of resolving the case. Islamabad accused Sarabjit of being an Indian agent who carried out four bomb attacks, but his family said he was a victim of mistaken identity. "I am sure both India and Pakistan would reach some sort of understanding on the issue," Deepak Kaul, visa counsellor at the Indian High Commission (embassy) in Islamabad, said after the two-hour meeting at a jail in Lahore.
