Support me to help free Sarabjit, Salman urges Pakistanis

Comments [ 8 ] By India-Forums.com Staff | 29 June 2012 | 12:08pm

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has urged the people of Pakistan to help him in efforts to free Sarabjit Singh, the Indian who is on death row in the neighbouring country.

"Requesting the people of Pakistan to support me to help free Sarabjit, who has been in prison since 30 yrs. Please. Allah ka vasta (for god's sake)," Salman tweeted.

"Request the awam (people) of Pakistan, members of the press, Govt of Pakistan, President (Asif Ali Zardari) Zardari, a humble request. It would be the most amazing gesture to send Sarabjit back to his family after 30 years. Hope you support me like it's your own cause," he added.

Hours after reports emerged that Pakistan was to free Sarabjit, the officials clarified that another Indian prisoner named Surjeet Singh, who has been in jail for three decades, would be released instead. The change of stance created a stir across India.

The actor was upset after he saw Sarabjit's family in dispair.

"I saw a picture of Sarabjit's sister, it killed me. Felt real sad for her. Help me, help her," he tweeted further.

If there's 2 ppl I truly love in the film industry for the golden heart it would have to be Salman and Aamir. I respect him for his heart.

I REALLY HOPE Pakistan releases Sarabjit Singh. On June 26, Pres. Zardari had released a statement of release for him but then Islamic fundamentalists and the corrupt influences managed to make the govt. stop this. An answer is needed. FUll SUPPORT for SALMAN!

If the Pakistani pop. is asking the Indian Govt. to release its prisoners, I believe there should be valid grounds for it. In fact, just yesterday it has been confirmed that the Mumbai Terror Attacks which happened in recent times (2008) had Pakistani state support.

Terrorism needs to be fought, and punished when there is strong evidence for it.2012-06-29 01:54:43
