THE HAGUE (NNI): Pakistan has filed a reply with International Court of Justice (ICJ) in Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav case on Wednesday stating that the issue cannot be treated under The Vienna Convention as Jadhav is a special case.
“Jadhav is not a common prisoner, hence The Vienna Convention is not applicable on him,” it was argued.
Sources told that Fareeha Bugti submitted the reply in ICJ. In the reply, Pakistan refuted the Indian stance, saying that the Indian spy was caught during terror activities and he confessed to running a network for terrorism as well as being funded by the neighbouring state.
The informed sources told media that now it will be India’s turn to respond to the arguments. Pakistan will have another chance to submit the reply after their response.
It is likely that the hearing of Kulbhushan Jhadav case will be held in the middle of 2018.
