Following the disappearance of the Indian officials, the Ministry of External Affairs summoned Pakistan’s Chargé d’affaires to India, Syed Hyder Shah and lodged a strong protest over the reported arrest.
The incident comes just days after two Pakistani officials of the Pakistan High Commission in Delhi were caught for espionage and asked by India to leave the country after being declared persona non grata.
This comes days after the vehicle of India's Charge d'affaires Gaurav Ahluwalia was chased by a member of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
According to Pakistani media reports, a case being tried under military courts and Pakistan Army Act, the law forbids such individuals or groups from filing an appeal and seeking justice from the civilian court.
India was not impressed with the first consular access exercise and claimed that Jadhav appeared 'under extreme pressure to parrot a false narrative to Pakistan’s untenable claims'.
In a huge victory for India, the ICJ on July 17 ordered Pakistan not to execute Kulbhushan Jadhav and directed 'effective review and reconsideration' of his conviction and the sentence awarded to him by a military court.
Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs had on Sunday informed that consular access to Jadhav will be provided today in line with the Vienna Convention on consular relations, International Court of Justice (ICJ) judgement and the laws of Pakistan.
