New Delhi: India Friday
granted permission to three Pakistani officials for consular
access to injured prisoner Sanaullah Ranjay in a Chandigarh
hospital.
External affairs ministry spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin gave the
information in a tweet.
Sanaullah, who was critically injured in an assault on him inside
Jammu's Kot Bhalwal Jail, was flown to Chandigarh and admitted to
the ICU of the Post-Graduate Institute of Medical Education and
Research (PGIMER) in the evening.
The Pakistani prisoner was flown from Jammu to Chandigarh in an
air ambulance for treatment.
"He has been admitted to the ICU. His condition is critical and
tests will be conducted on him," a PGIMER source said.
Tight security arrangements were made in the wing where Sanaullah
has been admitted.
The attack of Sanaullah came just a day after Indian death row
prisoner Sarabjit Singh died in Lahore following brutal attack on
him in Kot Lakhpat Jail.
Sanaullah, a resident of Sialkot, was attacked by a former Indian
Army soldier, convicted for murder, following an altercation
Friday morning, a police officer said.
