“The reality is that Hussain's death was nothing but cold-blooded murder,” said the FO, adding that Pakistan's serious concerns over the safety, security and well-being of other Pakistani prisoners in Indian custody were also raised.

Pakistan also demanded that the Indian government must immediately share the details of this particular incident, including a credible post-mortem report to determine the cause of death and undertake a transparent investigation to bring to account whoever is responsible for the murder of the Pakistani prisoner.
