Lahore/New Delhi: Sarabjit Singh, the Indian who was attacked in a prison in Pakistan where he spent 22 years after being convicted of terrorism, died early this morning at a Lahore hospital after a cardiac arrest.
Pakistan has agreed to send back his body to India for his last rites. It had turned down India's appeals to let Mr Singh be treated either in India or another country.
Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde said that a special plane will be sent to bring Mr Singh's body home.
