I felt it necessary to input the following comment at the petition website cited above:
I think this is a major achievement on the part of Indian civil society. Congratulations.
At this stage we will forego the description of him as a Pakistani, which he legally and constitutionally isn't. Nevertheless, pursuing his release tirelessly is a significant gesture of goodwill, on the part of Rahul Kapoor in particular.

Today was also 'Meeting the AC' day. Regular followers of this weblog will know that we like to keep our local administration and municipality engaged with all developments at Maqbool Bhat Martyr's Square. The following letter explains to the Assistant Commissioner (AC) that even at this late stage of the gardening season we would still like the administration and municipality to play a part in financing the beautification of the Square. They are always welcome to aid us in cleaning and gardening too.
Here's the latest written communication:
Note that the last time we communicated was on August the 3rd. That was the 4th time since we began communicating on the 15th of June. Hence, the above is communication exhibit number 5.
However, the AC 'explained' that the municipality doesn't have any money and that we are welcome to do whatever is necessary to beautify the Square. We have promptly forwarded his written remarks to the municipality.
In the meantime, the president of the trader's association in Dadyaal, namely Anwar Daar has assured us that he will obtain a written MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) from the AC. Meanwhile, he suggests that we continue public funding to pay for the metal grills that we need to fortify the Square from animals.
