India on Thursday accused Pakistan of blocking all legal remedies to Indian death row convict Kulbhushan Jadhav.
MEA Spokesperson Anurag Srivastava also said Pakistan adopted a “farcical approach” in handling the case, adding India is exploring available options in the matter.
MEA spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said during a weekly briefing that “Pakistan has blocked all avenues for effective remedy available to India. It stands in violation of ICJ judgement and its own Ordinance. India reserves its position including the right to avail of further remedies,”.
As reported by The Indian Express, Pakistan on July 16 did not allow Indian diplomats to carry the “Power of Attorney” legal document that could be signed by Jadhav.
Earlier, the Pakistan government petitioned the Islamabad high court to appoint a lawyer to represent Jadhav for filing a review petition against his death sentence.
