New Delhi: Pakistani
diplomats Saturday visited a Chandigarh hospital where a comatose
Pakistani prisoner is being treated after being attacked by a
prisoner in a Jammu jail, authorities said, adding they will be
granted consular access once daily.
"Pakistani officials had consular access to Sanaullah Ranjay and
also met attending doctors in Chandigarh," tweeted external
affairs ministry spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin.
The Pakistan High Commission said their diplomats visited Ranjay
at 3 a.m. today Saturday and met the hospital medical board.
The doctors "have given a very pessimistic prognosis of Ranjay's
recovery or survival and rule out prospects of his medical
evacuation", a high commission statement said.
The mission officers are in Chandigarh and in contact with
doctors.
"Medical condition shows that Sanaullah was subjected to multiple
brutal assaults of unspeakable savagery in the Jammu jail, which
is a matter of deep concern," the statement added.
Ranjay, a Pakistani lodged in Jammu's Kot Bhalwal Jail, was
critically injured after being attacked by an Indian prisoner
Friday, prompting Islamabad to demand his immediate release and
repatriation.
The Pakistan was flown to the Post-Graduate Institute of Medical
Education and Research (PGIMER) in Chandigarh for treatment.
The incident took place a day after Sarabjit Singh, an Indian
prisoner in Pakistan, succumbed to grievous injuries sustained in
a murderous assault on him in Lahore's Kot Lakhpat Jail.
