Karachi: Pakistan's caretaker minister for human rights Ansar Burney, who played a key role in the return of Indian national Kashmir Singh after he spent 35 years in jail, today defended his action, saying he has done nothing wrong.
Burney, a noted human rights lawyer, managed to get a Presidential pardon for Singh who was arrested on spying charges in Lahore and spent 35 years in jail after being sentenced to death.
He returned to India earlier this week with great fanfare and on Friday he told the Indian media that he was an Indian spy who had gone to Lahore on a spying mission putting Burney and the caretaker government in an awkward position.
