Indian patient to be repatriated on Thursday five years after mistakenly crossing border

Arjunwar was under treatment at the juvenile jail for having thalassemia before being transferred to district jail Landhi where all the Indian prisoners are kept since January 2015.

His deportation was only made possible after civil society lobbied to free him.

Arjunwar, a resident of Indian’s Madhya Pradesh, had entered Pakistan from the Rajasthan border on August 12, 2013, following an argument with his family.

He was kept in Hyderabad jail after being sentenced to a one-year imprisonment by the court and shifted to Karachi on completing his jail term in 2014.

We are human not Indians....He was not a spy or soldier...entered Pakistan after having dispute with family and suffering from thalassemia.

He's 20 years old, and entered the country illegally after an argument with his family. He was jailed for 1 year already. I want to know why we bothered to detain him afterwards. Should have sent him back 4 years ago. If he wasn't a spy or anything like that, whats the point?

I would have agreed if he was a soldier...Man he is just a normal guy entered Pakistan by mistake, got arrested and jailed and suffering from a disease. No harm in releasing him. We are not like them... We have our humanity intact. We don't lynch people for eating meat.

The person who posted that, if you were to face him in a battlefield, fair enough kill that person, but the indian guy who was released, is just a normal person.

No! Killing an enemy does
not require anything else.

I'm not going down to their level.
I'm not raping because they rape;
I'm not torturing since they torture
and so on.

That is in fact the difference between
a professional soldier and the savage.

Better day to you, Tay.
