kulbhushan jadhav

Pakistan's defence ministry informed its Supreme Court that kulbhushan jadhav, labeled an "Indian spy," was only entitled to consular access, not the right to appeal. This response addresses claims of unequal treatment compared to Pakistani citizens convicted in military courts. The ICJ intervened, citing Vienna Convention violations, halting Jadhav's execution and mandating consular access for India.

Deteriorating Indo-Pak relations and heightened security concerns have drastically reduced medical visas issued to Pakistani nationals seeking treatment in India. From over 1,600 visas in 2016, the number plummeted to just over 200 in 2024, a trend exacerbated by events like the kulbhushan jadhav case and the Pulwama attack.

A political battle has erupted over who deserves credit for the extradition of Tahawwur Hussain Rana, accused in the Mumbai terror attacks. The BJP claims it as a triumph of Prime Minister Modi's strong stance against terrorism, while the Congress insists it's the result of groundwork laid during their UPA government.

Mufti Shah Mir, involved in human trafficking and aiding Pakistan's ISI in abducting Indian businessman kulbhushan jadhav, was killed by unknown gunmen in Turbat, Balochistan. Mir, an important figure in spreading religious extremism and linked with ISI-led death squads, succumbed to his injuries after being shot multiple times.

kulbhushan jadhav, an Indian national, was arrested by Pakistan counter-terrorism officials for allegedly working as a spy for the Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW). Today, the International Court of Justice will pronounce its verdict on Jadhav's fate. Here is a timeline of how the events unfolded.

The Pakistan government on Wednesday moved the Islamabad HC seeking to appoint a counsel for Indian national kulbhushan jadhav in order to "implement the International Court of Justice's decision to meet the requirements of a fair trial." This comes days after it was reported Pakistan has offered third consular access to India for kulbhushan jadhav.

Pak said that it has "fully complied" with the ICJ's judgement in the kulbhushan jadhav case, days after India's lead counsel asserted that New Delhi had hoped it might be able to persuade Islamabad through "back channel" to release him. Jadhav was sentenced to death by a Pak military court on charges of "espionage and terrorism" in 2017.

Pakistan on Wednesday granted visas to jailed Indian national kulbhushan jadhav's mother and wife. However, it has not yet responded to New Delhi's request for a sovereign guarantee to ensure their safety and security during their stay.

India had hoped it might be able to persuade Pakistan through "back channel" to release retired Indian Navy officer kulbhushan jadhav, who was sentenced to death by a Pakistan military court on charges of "espionage and terrorism" in 2017, senior advocate Harish Salve has said. Salve was the lead counsel for India in the Jadhav case at the ICJ.

In a new video released by Pakistan on Monday, jailed Indian national kulbhushan jadhav is seen thanking the country for the "grand gesture" of allowing him to meet his wife and mother.

Captured Indian national kulbhushan jadhav refused to file a review petition and has decided to go ahead with his pending mercy plea, the Pakistan government has said. "Exercising his legal right he refused to file a petition for review and reconsideration of his sentence and conviction," Pakistan additional attorney general said.

"We fear that kulbhushan jadhav will be executed before our arguments are heard in the case," India on Monday told the International Court of Justice.

Shortly after a meeting between jailed Indian national kulbhushan jadhav and his mother and wife, Pakistan was at pains to clarify that this was not their "last meeting." This was basically an assurance that Jadhav, who is on death row in Pakistan, will not be executed - atleast not anytime soon.

A top Pakistani court has named three senior lawyers as amici curiae in the case of kulbhushan jadhav as it ordered the Pakistan govt to give "another chance" to India to appoint a counsel for the death-row prisoner. Jadhav, the 50-year-old retired Indian Navy officer, was sentenced to death by a Pakistani military court on charges of espionage and terrorism in April 2017.

India dismissed as a “continuation of a farce” Pakistan’s claim on Wednesday that Indian national kulbhushan jadhav has refused to file a review petition against his death sentence and only wants to follow up on his mercy petition. India said the claim was meant to mask Pakistan’s reticence to implement the ICJ judgment in letter and spirit.

Pakistan army said on Sunday its chief general Qamar Javed Bajwa was "analysing" the evidence against Indian national kulbhushan jadhav who was sentenced to death by a military court.

India on Monday demanded the immediate suspension of kulbhushan jadhav's death sentence, expressing fears that Pakistan could execute him even before the hearing at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) was over.

Congress leader Veerappa Moily said today that the humiliation of kulbhushan jadhav’s family members by Pakistan is “a diplomatic failure” of the government and the external affairs ministry.

Pakistan on Monday while presenting its case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on kulbhushan jadhav issue claimed that "India has used this court as the scene of political theatre."

The row over the meeting between Indian national kulbhushan jadhav and his wife and mothe, Chetna and Avanti, continued to generate heat with Pakistan claiming on Wednesday that Chetna’s shoes contained a metal object, confirming India’s suspicions that Islamabad was going to come up with a mischievous allegation.

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) will on Thursday pronounce its verdict on the kulbhushan jadhav case, government sources confirmed here.

Even as Pakistani high commissioner Abdul Basit reiterated Sunday that Pakistan's domestic laws will take precedence over ICJ's final judgement in the kulbhushan jadhav case, he said Islamabad will abide by the court's ruling last week staying the Indian national's death sentence.

The humiliating treatment meted out to kulbhushan jadhav’s family members by Pakistan and some of its media on the day they met the former naval officer seems to have pleased the country’s foreign ministry, according to some scribes there.

In a major victory for India, the International Court of Justice has ruled that Pakistan must review the death sentence for Indian national kulbhushan jadhav, who has been sentenced to death by a Pakistani military court. Jadhav, 49, a retired Indian Navy officer, was sentenced to death by the Pakistani military court on charges of "espionage and terrorism" after a closed trial in April 2017.
