Sarabjit Singh died after being attacked with bricks by other inmates in Lahore's Kot Lakhpat jail on Friday. He had been sentenced to death by a court in Pakistan in 1991. Sarabjit Singh's body is expected to arrive in India in the evening on a specially chartered plane. His family are reported to be waiting for the plane in the city of Amritsar, in the northern state of Punjab, his home state. A state funeral is due to take place on Friday. A six-member medical panel has carried out an autopsy at Jinnah Hospital in Lahore. [B]'Brave son of India' [/B] In a statement, Manmohan Singh called Sarabjit Singh "a brave son of India" and said the attack was "barbaric". "It is particularly regrettable that the government of Pakistan did not heed the pleas of the government of India, Sarabjit's family and of civil society in India and Pakistan to take a humanitarian view of this case," he added. Sarabjit Singh fell into a coma and died at 01:00 on Thursday morning (20:00 Wednesday GMT) in Lahore's Jinnah hospital. He had been sentenced to death for spying and his role in bomb attacks that killed 14 people in Pakistan in 1990. Sarabjit Singh's family, who had only just returned to India after visiting him in hospital, always insisted he was innocent and had strayed into Pakistan by mistake when he was arrested. But mercy petitions were rejected by Pakistani courts and former President Pervez Musharraf. Sarabjit Singh's sister Dalbir Kaur called her brother's death "a murder by Pakistan", according to the Associated Press. Ms Kaur said she would continue to fight for the release of other Indian prisoners in Pakistani jails.

He had sustained several serious injuries, including a fractured skull. The Pakistani foreign ministry said that Sarabjit Singh had received "the best treatment available" and that "medical staff at Jinnah Hospital had been working round the clock... to save his life". [B]Espionage accusations [/B] The issue risks stirring fresh tensions in relations between the nuclear-armed neighbours and long-time rivals, correspondents say. Strains had already increased in the past six months with the execution in India of Kashmiri Afzul Guru over the 2001 attack on India's parliament, and of Mohammed Ajmal Qasab, a Pakistani who was the sole surviving gunman from the 2008 Mumbai attacks. Sarabjit Singh's lawyer Owais Sheikh said his client had received threats after Guru's execution. Sarabjit Singh's family had visited him in hospital earlier in the week Sarabjit Singh was attacked as he and other prisoners were brought out of their cells for a one-hour break. Two inmates were charged with attempted murder and two officials suspended. Pakistan and India frequently arrest each other's citizens, often accusing them of being spies after they have strayed across the land or maritime border. In recent years, several Indians returning from Pakistani jails have admitted to spying. Some have criticised India's government for abandoning them.
