Islamabad: The wife of a Pakistani man diagnosed with schizophrenia has appealed the country's president to spare her husband's life and suspend a death sentence which is set to be carried out in less than 72 hours.
Safia Bano said on Saturday she has filed a revised petition in the country's supreme court of Pakistan, requesting the suspension of the scheduled Nov. 2 execution of Imdad Ali, 50. She said she met with Ali in jail two days ago and that he doesn't fully comprehend what is about to happen.
