Indian prisoners stoned to death a Pakistani inmate in a jail yesterday amid mounting tensions over a suicide bombing that Delhi has blamed on its arch-rival neighbour, an official said. The Pakistani had been eight years into a life term at Jaipur Central Jail in the western state of Rajasthan when he was attacked. The killing came amid calls for retribution across India over a car bombing in Kashmir last Thursday which killed at least 40 Indian paramilitaries.
