Sarabjit was in jail for over 20 years in Pakistan. He had been convicted of terrorism charges. After his death in May, his sister Dalbir Kaur demanded that the Pakistan government should return his belongings and clothes and a personal diary, which she wanted to preserve as his memory.
He died after inmates assaulted him with bricks in Lahore central jail in April.
