Pakistani
scientist Dr Khalil Chishti, released by Indian government last week
after 20-year, has reached at his home in Karachi on Wednesday.
The octogenarian Pakistani virologist received warm-welcome at Karachi Airport, and Pakistan's flag was hoisted at him home.
Dr Chishti said that he could not forget the time passed in Indian prison. He was released on humanitarian bases.
Family members of Dr Chishti received him at Karachi airport.
Earlier on Tuesday, Dr Chishti reached Islamabad Airport from New Delhi – where he spent 20 years in incarceration via Jaipur.
It is pertinent to mention here that Indian Supreme Court ordered in April this year and a consequent order from the same court last week have facilitated Dr Chishty’s journey to meet his family members in Pakistan. He will have to report back on November 1.
For Dr Chishty – who was sentenced to life imprisonment on January 31, 2011 after a protracted trial for his alleged involvement in a murder in 1992.
