Islamabad : Pakistan Tuesday handed over the released Indian spy, Kashmir Singh, to Indian authorities at eastern Wagha border.
Singh was released on Monday after spending 35 years of imprisonment in Pakistani jails on spying charges.
He was arrested in adjacent Rawalpindi city in 1973 with another person while trying to smuggle goods from Pakistan to India.
The other man was sentenced to 10 years in jail and had been sent back to India, but a military court sentenced Singh to death. His family in 2005 had filed a mercy petition and requested the President to release him but their petition was turned down.
President Musharraf accepted his mercy plea at the request of Caretaker Federal Minister for Human Rights, Ansar Burney.
