By providing clemency to the accused, Pakistan would truly demonstrate high values of life. Hanging of a person is not only inhuman and unethical but also extremely brutal way of governance. It is now known the world over that Sarbjit is innocent by all means. Is it justice that a man languishes in jail throughout life and even can be hanged without any crime on his part. Life is full of dignity and right to life is the supreme right. The judiciary, the government and the state must hold reverential attitude towards life. Life is never individual or an isolated phenomenon. Your life, his life and every one's life is one.
I hope Pakistan would set an example of providing the life its due by releasing Sarabjit and other prisoners.

Pakistanis are known to be very kind. When I visited Pakistan in 2003, I was treated like lords.
We hope for piece between our neighbouring superpower.

You are right, Sir. Every human person, including a Pakistani, is nice, is born nice. When provoked one becomes unjust, losses balance and resorts to injustice. Persons languishing is jails for no fault of theirs are victims of such injustice. Any verdict provoked by some one (including a neighbour country or an 'enemy' nation) only results in injustice. Injustice is a crime on Earth on one's own life. Life and sanctity go hand in hand. The ball is in Pakistan's court. They have time to prove that sanctity for life imbibes in them.

Hello Ms Vijaya Lakshmi, some point to reflect let me share in this context .... every child coming out of the womb of a loving and affectionate mother is born innocent and with clean mind by god blessings, whichever religion, faith, caste, creed the child may belong to . then why all this dilution / corruption of minds of the same child on growing up .. there is a saying - society creates the crime, the criminal just carries out the Society's Plan into reality ... how true when we see the reality of things happening around us...

Very true!! Sarabjeet deserves for his freedom. i hope that gov. of pakistan will be in favour of reducing death penalty to life imprisonment. it is said that 'to forgive is far difficult than to punish' because in forgiving somebody, one needs to sacrifice a lot but at the same time the one, who forgives is rewarded dignity and honour by all the mankind. let us pray to God and hope that Sarabjeet will be released from the Jail of Pakistan.
