As earlier reported to Indian authorities, a total of 365 Indian prisoners were to be repatriated by Pakistan according to fishermen who arrived here.
The name of 17-year-old prisoner from UP Manjo Kumar was deleted at the last moment by Pakistan government and one prisoner Raju had died in jail due to illness. There was confusion about the arrival of one more prisoner.
Executive magistrate PPS Goraya, who received the prisoners, informed that as against earlier information of the arrival of 365 Indian prisoners from Pakistan, a total of 362 have arrived. Elated to return to his country, Shabbir, a fisherman from Gurjrat told TOI that he had spent 9 months in jail for committing no crime. "We were arrested by a Pakistani speed boat while we were in our own territory. This is injustice. Both governments should find a solution to it," he said. About his experience in a Pakistani jail, he said the prisoners were not provided with proper medication in case of illness but were given two tablets thrice a day for any kind of illness. "Itching, skin diseases are common in jail but for their treatment, medicine is same as that of any other illness," he complained.
Another released prisoner who didn't want to give his name informed that Indian prisoner Raju had died in jail a couple of weeks ago. "He was sick but was given the same two tablets thrice a day; no special treatment was given to him," he alleged. Remembering the innocent face of Manoj Kumar, 17, resident of Uttar Pardesh, Hanif, a young boy of 16 from Gujrat said, "He was so happy to go back to home, but as he was told that his name has been deleted from the list he started crying and embraced me and asked me to somehow inform his family in India about his well-being." He said children like him went to sea to learn the tricks of the trade but were caught for no crime of theirs.
Another young boy, Parmi said, "He (Manoj) must be crying in jail but I can't help him."
Hazikar who was sentenced for 10 days only said he had been able to come back from Pakistan only after 4 months. "Verification process takes all this time. I have lost my business, two of my boats have been seized by Pakistan, I don't know what I will do now."
All the prisoners will stay overnight in Amritsar before heading for their homes on Sunday.
