PAKISTAN. PAKISTAN SAYS DEATH-ROW INDIAN SPY'S FATE DEPENDS ON MERCY

it was reported that Pakistan's Foreign Minister Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri told the Hindi news channel Aaj Tak that the fate of Sarabjit Singh, an Indian national on death row in Pakistan convicted as a spy and for setting bombs that killed several people, could be decided by the relatives of those killed.
"Under Islamic law... a death sentence can be commuted into life sentence if the relatives of the dead agree," Kasuri said.
This case "will become a test case in Pakistan itself," he added. Singh's conviction and death sentence were upheld by Pakistan's Supreme Court in August and prompted his relatives in India along with the government to call for a review of the case by Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf.
