Pakistan vows to repatriate jailed scientist

None

Pakistan vowed on Friday to repatriate a scientist sentenced to an effective life term in the United States as hundreds of people protested against the ruling, denouncing their government and its ally Washington.

 

Many in Pakistan, a key US ally in the war against militants and where anti-US sentiment also run high, believe Aafia Siddiqui, a 38-year-old neuroscientist, is innocent. (Reuters)
