NEW DELHI: Times of India has claimed that Nawaz Sharif government was not aware of the Pakistan Army decision of death sentence to Indian RAW agent Kulbhushan Yadav.
The Pakistan government discovered the verdict on Kulbhushan Jhadav at the same time Indians did — at 2pm on April 10.
The progress of the secret military trial against Jadhav was obviously kept out of view of even the civilian government.
With foreign minister Sushma Swaraj ratcheting up the diplomatic rhetoric, ties with Pakistan just went down several notches.
The progress of the secret military trial against Jadhav was obviously kept out of view of even the civilian government.
It was only a statement read out by Sartaj Aziz, Pakistani PM Nawaz Sharif adviser on foreign affairs, that gave any details at all.
It was also clear that Aziz was merely the messenger being used by the army.
