*HAGUQ, Netherlands – The British report about the passport of the Indian spy Kulbhushan Jhadav was presented in the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Tuesday.*
In the report, it was stated that the RAW had increased activities in Balochistan after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to the power.
Khawar Qureshi contended that the list of terrorist activities of Kulbhushan Jhadav is very long. “What is the meaning of the consular access when a man is unidentified?” he maintained. The Indian counsel Harish Salve was baffled by the weighty arguments of Pakistan counsel Khawar Qureshi
Meanwhile, Foreign Office Spokesperson Dr Faisal said that Pakistan will not seek adjournment due to absence of the Pakistan ad hoc judge in the hearing.
The four-day hearing of the case will continue till Thursday and the court is expected to announce its judgment by the summer this year.
The Pakistani delegation is led by the Attorney General, Anwar Mansoor Khan. Pakistan will make its final submission on Thursday.
On Monday, India had argued that Commander Kulbhushan Jadhav is an innocent businessman and he is entitled to obtain consular access.
During the hearing, the court asked India to present their arguments on the case. However, India started arguments with blame game, accusing Pakistan of kidnapping Kulbhushan from Iran. His arguments centred around the Article 36 of the Vienna Convention.
Meanwhile, in a video message, Foreign Office spokesperson Dr Muhammad Faisal had said that India could not submit any substantial material at International Court of Justice in their demand for acquittal of Kulbhushan Jadhav. He said the Indian side produced nothing new in their submission before the Court. The spokesperson said the India Spy is involved in killing of thousands of people.
Earlier, Islamabad has presented evidence obtained from Commander Jadhav after his arrest, and during the criminal process leading to his conviction as amply demonstrating his activities in fomenting terrorism in Pakistan.
