INDIA SEEKS JADHAV TRIAL PROCEEDINGS
Even as Pakistan is yet to respond to India’s 14th request for consular access to former Naval officer Kulbhushan Jadhav, the ministry of external affairs (MEA) on Thursday said India had placed its 15th request on Thursday when Pakistan’s deputy high commissioner was “called in” by the MEA on the Jadhav case.
India has also officially sought from Pakistan details of the trial proceedings against Mr Jadhav as well as the appeal process in the case, the MEA said. Sources said the MEA is readying a range of legal options to defend Jadhav, who was recently sentenced to death.
