Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) chief Yasin Malik on Sunday asked the Pakistani government not to make any “hasty decision” on Indian death row prisoner Sarabjit Singh in the wake of Afzal Guru’s execution.
Addressing a gathering of Kashmiri leaders and activists ahead of funeral prayers in absentia in the Pakistani capital for Afzal, Malik said: “I know that some people are demanding that Sarabjit be hanged. I urge you to make no such demand. That would amount to the same thing as the murder of Guru. I ask the government of Pakistan not to make any hasty decision in this regard.”
