Chandigarh: Pakistani prisoner Sanaullah Ranjay who
was hospitalised here after being attacked in a Jammu jail last
week died Thursday morning due to multiple organ failure, doctors
said.
"Sanaullah was declared dead around 7 a.m. due to multiple organ
failure. The team of doctors headed by Y.K. Batra tried their best
to revive him," a spokesperson of the Post-Graduate Institute of
Medical Education and Research (PGIMER) said here.
Ranjay, who was critical for the last few days, had suffered renal
failure Wednesday.
The Pakistani was in deep coma ever since he was flown in here
from Jammu last Friday. He was serving life imprisonment at
Jammu's Kot Bhalwal Jail. He was attacked May 3 by an Indian
prisoner.
Pakistan High Commission spokesman Manzoor Memon said in New Delhi
that Pakistan was "in grief and shocked" at the death of Ranjay.
"We will request the Indian government to facilitate return of his
body to Pakistan," Memon told IANS.
The information regarding his death has been given to the central
government, PGIMER officials said.
Ranjay had developed jaundice and other internal infections
Tuesday, doctors said. The post-mortem examination would be
conducted later Thursday.
Two members of Ranjay's family had arrived here Tuesday from
Pakistan. They had appealed to the Indian government to repatriate
him to Pakistan.
The attack on Ranjay took place a day after Sarabjit Singh, an
Indian prisoner in Pakistan, succumbed to grievous injuries
following a murderous assault in Lahore's Kot Lakhpat Jail.
Ranjay was arrested in 1996 and charged with involvement in a bomb
blast at Katra near the Hindu shrine of Mata Vaishno Devi in 1994
which left 10 people dead. He was serving life term in the Jammu
jail.
Pakistan High Commissioner Salman Bashir had visited PGIMER Monday
to see the Pakistani prisoner.
