Release of 60 jailed Pakistanis urged by human rights activist

Aug 22, 2005 (Islamabad) — Human rights activist Ansar Burney has urged the government of Sudan for early release of 60 Pakistanis languishing in its jails for the last six months.

In a press statement issued here on Monday, the Chairman of Ansar Burney Welfare Trust said most of the Pakistanis had gone to Sudan for job after an agreement with a firm, but later were arrested for unknown reasons. He said a Kashmiri recruiting agency had arranged visas for these people after receiving huge amounts from them.
