PAKISTAN:

Pakistan stays Indian's execution


Pakistan's president Pervez Musharraf has stayed the execution of an
Indian prisoner in a Pakistani jail for a month, after appeals from India.

Sarabjit Singh was sentenced to death in 1991 for spying and for carrying
out 4 bombings that killed 14 people. His family has denied the
allegations.
