AMRITSAR: Two more Pakistani prisoners died in Indian jails, Indian media reported on Friday.
According to reports, a Pakistani prisoner Mohammad Amin Chaudhary lost his life at the Ahmedabad Civil Hospital during treatment.
Indian local court in March last 2018, announced three years sentence and sent him to jail for illegally crossing the India-Pakistan border in the Creek area for fishing. He was in Palara Jail since 2017.
A senior Indian official told that when his condition deteriorated on 20 February, he was first referred to a hospital in Bhuj and later shifted to Ahmedabad Civil Hospital.
Similarly, another Pakistani prisoner Mohammad Amzad was admitted to the hospital on February 25. He was reportedly sentenced for illegally entering India. However, he was shifted to Amritsar Jail for repatriation to Pakistan.
The bodies of both the prisoners are likely to be handed over to Pakistan today.
Earlier, Indian government handed over body of Pakistani prisoner Shakirullah, who was stoned to death by inmates in Jaipur Jail on February 20, after India leveled false allegations against Pakistan of being involved in the Pulwama attack.
