Man jailed for killing Daniel Pearl may walk free this week
Supreme court refuses to suspend ruling exonerating Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh
A British-born man convicted over the gruesome 2002 murder of American journalist Daniel Pearl could walk free later this week after a ruling by Pakistan’s supreme court.
The court refused on Monday a government request to suspend a lower court’s ruling exonerating Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh of Pearl’s murder before a 90-day detention order expires on Thursday.
