Supreme Court has directed the Centre to release and repatriate within four weeks 61 Pakistani nationals languishing in jails in India despite having undergone their punishment for various offences. The apex court on Wednesday said though India has a better track record of treating cases pertaining to foreign nationals than other countries, yet it needs to show some urgency in such cases. The foreign nationals were arrested more than a decade ago on the charge of indulging in militant activities, border crossing, causing public breach and other offences. A bench of two justices asked Solicitor General of India Gopal Subramanium to conduct verification of the claims and pass necessary orders for their repatriation.
