Rana Sanaullah Haq (c. 1961-9 May 2013, Urdu: رانا ثناء الله حق, Rānā S̱anāʾu l-lāh Haq, pronounced [ˈraː.na sə.ˈnaː.ʊl.la ɦəq]), also known as Sanaullah Ranjay, was a Pakistani national from Sialkot, Punjab who was serving a life term in a jail in India for his involvement in terror acts with the banned militant group Hizbul Mujahideen, as per the verdict by Indian courts.[2] Before being incarcerated, he was reportedly involved in separatist activities and two bombing incidents in Indian-administered Kashmir.[2] On 3 May 2013, he was attacked by a former Indian soldier Vinod Kumar, who had been convicted of murder.[3] Reports of his attack came a day after the murder of an Indian prisoner Sarabjit Singh in Pakistani detention. Sanaullah died six days later due to the injuries sustained during the attack.
