India on Saturday handed over the body of the prison inmate who died in a jail in Jaipur, to Pakistan.

India handed over the mortal remains of the deceased prisoner to Pakistani authorities via the Wagah Border.

Shakar Ullah, along with three other prisoners, was watching TV when a brawl broke out among them over volume. As the fight escalated, the three convicts allegedly bashed Ullah's head against a stone.

A native of Sialkot district of Pakistan, Shakar was arrested in 2011 under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. In 2017, he was sentenced to life imprisonment.
