Pakistani authorities are currently investigating the shooting death of a man in Lahore, Pakistan. The deceased individual, Amir Tamba, had been acquitted in the killing of accused Indian spy Sarabjit Singh in a Lahore prison back in 2013. Singh, an Indian national convicted of spying in Pakistan and sentenced to death in 1991, was attacked and killed by fellow inmates in the prison.
Amir Tamba, along with another individual, stood trial for Singh's death but was acquitted in 2018 due to insufficient evidence. Tamba was shot by unidentified gunmen who entered his house in Lahore and then fled the scene on a motorbike. Pakistani authorities, including the army and intelligence agency, responded to the incident and transported Tamba's body to the city's Combined Military Hospital for further investigation.
