Pakistan to provide India consular access to Jadhav today
Pakistan said they would provide Consular access for Kulbhushan Jadhav, a former naval officer who has been sentenced to death by a court alleged for "espionage and terrorism".
New Delhi: Pakistan said they would provide Consular access for Kulbhushan Jadhav, a former naval officer who has been sentenced to death by a court alleged for "espionage and terrorism".
A tweet from Pakistan's foreign office said India will be given consular access on Monday "in line with Vienna Convention on Consular relations, ICJ judgement & the laws of Pakistan".
This is the first time that Kulbhusan Jadhav -- sentenced to death by a Pakistani military court in April 2017 -- will be given consular access.
After repeated requests to Islamabad, India flagged the matter to the International Court of Justice, where it had appealed for the cancellation of his death sentence.
India says Mr Jadhav is a retired Naval officer, who was abducted from Iran where he was running a business. The International Court asked Pakistan to hold off his execution till it reaches its final verdict in the case.
On July 17, the International Court of Justice ordered Pakistan to review and reconsider the conviction and sentence of Mr Jadhav and also to grant consular access to India without further delay.
