According to a statement on Tuesday, Hasan said that Singh had killed fourteen Pakistanis in a bomb attack and had been awarded death sentence by the court, adding that the President's power of commutation of death sentence under the constitution was un-Islamic because Islam gave this right only to the heirs of the deceased.
“The President's decision has hurt the sentiments of fourteen aggrieved families,” the JI Ameer lamented.
Hasan said that India had arrested Ajmal Kasab, one of the accused in the 2008 Mumbai attack, without any evidence and yet the Indian courts had sentenced him. He added that the Pakistan government did not provide any legal assistance to Kassab, instead when a Pakistani investigation team visited India, they were not even allowed to meet Kasab.
“As against the Indian animosity, the Pakistani rulers were hand in glove with India which was most shameful.”
Hasan also mentioned how the government has already released a RAW agent Kashmir Singh recently.
The JI leader lashed out at India saying that they were blaming Pakistan for every terrorist and subversive activity on its soil. "Extremist Hindus have made life miserable for Indian Muslims, killing thousands of them in riots. The minorities in India are not safe, with mosques and churches being torched, despite all this, the rulers in Islamabad have accepted India's supremacy," he complained.

@PakArmySoldier:
dont confuse "bail" of a personal fight "accused" with "release" of a "convicted terrorist". if you like comparisons, compare sarabjit with ajmal kassab. nobody in pakistan wants ajmal's repatriation and india is pressurising so much for release of its terrorist. now who is supporting terrorists?
btw.... r u real pakistani army soldier????
JI thrives and survives on India bashing so no one is surprised on the above statement by its leader but time has moved on and people now know JI character.
What is this confusion?? Who is being released??Sarabjeet Singh or Sukhjeet Singh? Last night Indian Media reported that Sarabjeet Singh is being released. In the morning, it was being told that not Sarabjeet Singh, but another Indian Sukhjeet Singh who is in Pakistani jail for the last 20-30 years on charges of espionage is being released.
What is the truth??
"JI condemns Sarabjeet Singh's release" +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ And now JI will have to condemn Surjeet Singh's release. Someone must apologise to JI for this additional work with JI.
People who become ´´thakeydaars´´ of Islam, Pakistan and honor like JI, DPC etc etc were people who opposed the creation of Pakistan.
There, I made a simple template. Insert in the blank space any positive development.
JI condemns __________
well JI guys are worried about minorities in India, In Pakistan 135 shias were killed and their bodies were thrown in the river near chillas (northern area of pakistan ). in quetta hazaras are being victimised by these extremists, and Karachi, not even a single statement about talibans and these extremists organizations like siph-e-sahaba and lashkare-e-jhangvi.
@abc: Main eye witness whose own father was killed in the bomb attack has told in media interviews that he was forced to accuse Sarabjit as the bomber.
.
Munawar Hasan Sahab: Did you really feel the same level of sympathy for the survivors of the forty thousand Pakistanis who have been butchered by the Al-Qaeda affiliates, when you called Osama bin Laden a "shaheed (martyr), hundred times" on the national TV, in the program Jawab Deh, only a few months ago?
Hasan said that India had arrested Ajmal Kasab, one of the accused in the 2008 Mumbai attack, without any evidence and yet the Indian courts had sentenced him
May I know how arresting a man who was captured in CCTV with a rifle in his hand and several eye witness claim to have seen him not be called as evidence???
JI will never condemn the beheading of seven Pakistani soldiers. What kind of people are they ?
@PakArmySoldier: Dr. Chishti did not kill anyone. India is criminal in that case too
It is idiotic suggestion. Why Indian and Israeli and their puppy terrorists are forgiven. Zardari has no right to forgive proven die hard terrorists @Salman Ali:
people like you should be jailed for life for spoiling the name of country and making this region not peaceful. Historically, you have trained, supported and funded non state actors and brainwashed common citizens into troublemakers. That have made entire world look down on us. Shame on JUI, DPC, and all such groups.
@Indian: You forgot to put a disclaimer that the Wiki page was not written by a RAW agent.
Here's a crash-course on Islam for 'Jamat-e-Islami':
The Prophet was the most forgiving person. He was ever ready to forgive his enemies. When he went to Ta’if to preach the message of Allah, its people mistreated him, abused him and hit him with stones. He left the city humiliated and wounded. When he took shelter under a tree, the angel of Allah visited him and told him that Allah sent him to destroy the people of Ta’if because of their sin of maltreating their Prophet. Muhammad prayed to Allah to save the people of Ta'if, because what they did was out of their ignorance.
What about condemning Qadri? What about the decisions to release the killers of minorities by the pakistani courts and you being very freindly with them?we the pakistanis dont care about u dear Mr Munawar Hasan aka Hudud Ordinance aka Martyr Osama. You and your bigotry.
Bal Thackerey and Munawar Hasan, two faces of the same coin. Ordinary people are for peace and development in the region. Munawar sb- its time to review your politics of hate and war mongering. We have had enough of conflict and wars.
@abc: dude read the facts of the case... sarabjit singh accidently crossed over to Pakistan and was forced to confess. The key witness who came forward against him retracted from his statement. wiki page on sarabjit singh
Has JI ever once condemned a single bombing in Pakistan by Pakistan based militants? Even worse, how many more terrorists than not have they defended against allegations on your own people?
Munawar Sb. Pakistan came into existence for the Muslims of subcontinent but after creation of Pakistan political parties of Pakistan closed the border because of their own interests; so now why you are showing your fake care for them. Keep it simple and bring peace in the region at any cost.
Munawar Hasan sb. Even what say may be worth at least reading BUT please don't bring Islam in everything especially, one of your own subsidiary Al-Khadmat looting, grabbing people's land n properties by justparadises promising paradises (which even you don't will get or not). Once your setup start practicing real Islamic principals/sharia than advise or criticize others. Go look n investigate Rahimyarkhan Al-Khadmat n it's militant setup and evaluate what kind of Islamic rules they are practicing/how many people are cursing them.
Sarabjeet Singh was condemned to death sentence yet he was kept alive in jail for over two decades, which means he has completed much more than life sentence. The points to ponder are: Why Sarabjeet Singh was not hanged and kept in jail this long? Why are JI and other deep state actors talking about exchanging Ajmal Kasab, are they owning Ajmal Kasab and his acts? Even if Sarabjeet Singh is as guilty as Ajmal Kasab, shoudn't we talk about Kasab after two decades in jail? Why is so much love and interest for Kasab and Aafia in Pakistan? Even if there is a doubt in the case against them still there is no reason to love them. No wonder the deep state and its rightwing puppets hate the secular elected govt, they are in love with the most dubious characters.
This should not have happened at the first place nobody should be given immunity which will send a wrong message towards people serving their nation at the cost of their lives. If he was found guilty than this clemency will come to haunt pakistan. The government should explain the people on what grounds they have found that this person must be released and he is no more threat. Did they got any assurance from india. We must build relations with all our neighbours but not at the cost of our national security.
Did JI also condemn Dr. Chisti's release?
JI has a point and Sarbjeet should be made an example.
It is another thing that so far no one has been investigated much less accountable for 1971 debacle, Bhutto's political murder, Benzair's murder, Kargil and few of the incidents like Lal Masjid and Sialkot lynching even have eye witnesses and video footage.
But all the above are non essential and it is really remarkable how the entire Pakistani machinery (intelligence and judiciary) was able to expend justice for Sarbjeet.
Munawar Hasan sb. Let the people across the border abolish the walls raised by so called parties like you. Stop spreading the hatred and let the people of both sides build some confidence measures.
