Jammu, Apr 29: BJP activists today held a protest against the attack on Sarabjit Singh and asked the Centre to take serious measures to check the "atrocities" on Indian prisoners lodged in Pakistan jails.



The protesters activists burned the effigy of Pakistan and raised slogans against the neighbouring country saying time and again they were torturing Indian prisoners.

"They are not issuing any medical report about the attack on him. We fear that the way they killed Chamel Singh, they are trying to do the same with Sarabjit," said an agitating protester.

"We appeal to the Centre to take firm measures to stop such atrocities against the Indian prisoners in Pakistan jails," the protesters added.

Indian national Sarabjit Singh, who is on death row in a Lahore jail, received serious injuries to his head after he was attacked by fellow prisoners on April 26 and is battling for life at the intensive care unit of the state-run Jinnah Hospital.

Earlier, this year in a similar incident Chamel Singh was killed in Pakistan's Kot Lakhpat jail.
