Supreme
Court (SC) Wednesday issued orders to release Pakistani microbiologist
Dr Muhammad Khalil Chishti after being incarcerated for 18 years on the
pretext of murder. Khalil Chishti, 80, was allowed to go home following
the President Asif Ali Zardari visit to Ajmer Sharif in Rajasthan and
meeting with the Indian Prime Minister and other dignitaries of the
ruling cabal in April 2012. Chishti spent 14 months in an Indian jail
as he was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment in January 2011
for killing a man after a fight in Ajmer in 1992, a charge he vehemently
denies. He was found guilty after an unusually long 18-year trial
during which he was put under house arrest.
