Lahore; 20th February 1988
LAHORE – Believe it or not; an innocent man Mohammed Akhtar, 40, who was born within the high walls of Prison, released today and seen free world after 40 long years. He was released only because of the hectic efforts of Ansar Burney, Advocate. Since his birth in the prison, Akhtar was unaware of any freedom. Akhtar spent his 40 long precious years including his childhood within the high walls. He took his free breath in the free atmosphere after his birth of fourty long years. His release came fruitful only because of Mr Ansar Burney. According to details a young woman was arrested by the police and sent to the Jail in 1946. During custody innocent lady was raped. Unfortunate lady gave a birth to a son in 1948. Someone cynically christened the boy Mohammed Akhtar. No one wanted to claim Akhtar for his own. During custody his mother died when he was only five or six. When Mr Ansar Burney got the release of Akhtar and took him out in a free atmosphere, the boy was unable to cross the Road. Mr Ansar Burney took the finger of Akhtar in his hand and crossed the road. Akhtar after came out from the high walls, was looking every thing as he was born today. Mr Ansar Burney, who was instrumental, is hoping other innocents who are behind the bars on crime they had never committed. Mr Ansar Burney has become an ‘Angel’ for the innocents in Pakistan. After getting the release of a man who was born in the Prison because of rape to his mother, Ansar Burney has left for Karachi along with Akhtar. Ansar Burney who is become a hope of justice for innocents, said I want to know from the Government that who will return the long 40 years of Akhtar including his childhood to him? Who is going to do justice with the soul of an innocent mother of Akhtar who died after giving birth to her son? He said the government should do justice in the matter.
