Amritsar, April 7. Dalbir Kaur, sister of Sarabjit Singh who is on the death row in Pakistan, has reached Ajmer, hoping to meet Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari during his visit tomorrow and to appeal him for Sarabjit’s release.
Talking to The Tribune over the phone from Ajmer, Dalbir said she had met Ajmer Deputy Commissioner as well as members of the advance team of the Pakistan President. “I have brought into their notice my purpose to meet the President and they have assured me an appointment with him”. She said she would appeal for clemency to Sarabjit and would also hand over relevant documents to the President.
Earlier, too, a clemency petition for Sarabjit was filed before the Zardari, but a decision is yet to be taken on it. Sarabjit is lodged in a Pakistan jail for the last around two decades regarding a bomb explosion.
