How come Musharaf is getting all the credit. It was Ansar Barni who took all the pain of visiting Jails and getting Mr. Singh out, prepared a nice case for him and put infront of Musharaf. Ansar Barni is human rights activist for more than a decade. He helped literally thousands of Pakistani prisoners in foreign jails. This is the first time he became a minister in the caretaker government, and when he visited the jails he could not help to feel the same emotion for a foreigner in Pakistani Jail. If he would not have become the minister he would not have a chance to visit the jails and meet prisoners so freely. When he became the minister everyone was criticizing him for indulging into the dirty business of politics. But I guess it was a blessing that he took this job.
