It is a cold blooded murder: BJP on Sarabjit's death

Sarabjit Singh died in the wee hours today after being comatose for nearly a week

BJP today termed as a "cold blooded murder" the death of Sarabjit Singh following a brutal assault on him in a high-security Pakistani jail.

"It is a cold blooded murder. This is not the way civilised nations behave," BJP leader Sushma Swaraj wrote on microblogging site Twitter.

Singh died of cardiac arrest in a Lahore hospital in the wee hours today after being comatose for nearly a week following a brutal assault by fellow inmates in Lahore's Kot Lakhpat Jail.
