Pakistan court rejects Sarabjit’s death sentence appeal
Pakistan’s Supreme Court dismissed on Wednesday an appeal by Sarabjit Singh, an Indian man seeking a review of a death sentence imposed on him for spying and carrying out bombings in the 1990s.
The rejection came as relations between old rivals India and Pakistan inched towards improvement following a meeting last week between their leaders, the first since last year’s militant attack on Mumbai in which 166 people were killed.
Singh was sentenced to death in 1991 for spying and bombings that killed 14 people. His family said he was innocent and had crossed the border into Pakistan accidentally in 1990 while he was drunk. Pakistani officials said Singh was arrested while trying to slip back into India after the bomb blasts

Iran calm after vote fraud claims trigger clashes
Tehran was mostly calm on Sunday after election fraud claims triggered violent street clashes, but the government maintained fairly tight control of information flow and new details emerged of arrests of high-profile reformists.
The efforts seemed aimed at avoiding a repeat of the chaos that lasted past midnight Saturday. Opponents of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad set buses and cars ablaze in the capital and threw rocks at police to protest what they viewed as his illegitimate victory.
Iran restored cell phone service that had been down in the capital since Saturday. But Iranians could not send text messages from their phones, and the government increased its Internet filtering in an apparent bit to undercut liberal voices.

Pilgrims being forced to buy mineral water bottles at exorbitant rates
Water scarcity cries have begun renting airs in and around the pilgrimage city of Katra in Reasi district with pilgrims being forced to buy mineral water bottles at ‘exorbitant rates’ from the shopkeepers on the way to cave shrine.
With Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (SMVDSB) maintaining a complete silence towards this problem, Shopkeepers enroute the cave shrine are selling the water bottles at exorbitant rates. At a time, when the rush of pilgrims is set to increase, water scarcity enroute the cave shrine would add to the woes of the people.
Summer is a time when the rush of pilgrims multiplies at Katra. With closure of educational institutions, a good number of children can be seen accompanying their parents for this pilgrimage and water scarcity would make life difficult for the families coming for pilgrimage to this place.
