Bollywood star Salman Khan took the initiative to launch a campaign in support of the release of Indian spy Sarabjit Singh, who has been spending jail term in Pakistan for 21 years.

Few days back, Sarabjit Singh's sister met for External Affairs Minister SM Krishna and urged him with teary eyes to make efforts to set him free. Salman who saw the pic of Sarabjit's sister pleading SM Krishna on the web got emotional and immediately requested people, press, government and president of Pakistan to send Sarabjit back to his family and become part of one family's happiness. And now, the actor started the 'Free Sarabjit Singh' campaign by urging the people to sign a petition which would be sent to Pakistan government.

Sarabjit Singh was convicted with death sentence for his involvement in serial bomb blasts at Faisalabad and Lahore in 1990. However, there were also reports that Sarabjit's case was that of a mistaken identity.
