Lahore, Oct 8:  Indian death row prisoner Sarabjit Singh was today allowed by a Pakistani court to meet his lawyer in jail and rejected objections raised by authorities

regarding such meetings.



Lahore High Court Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial issued the order after hearing arguments by his lawyer Awais Sheikh and the Assistant Advocate General of Punjab province.

Sheikh argued that authorities at Kot Lakhpat Jail could not stop him from meeting Sarabjit as he was the prisoner's counsel.

Sheikh said he was prevented from visiting his client in jail.
