India accused Pakistan of not allowing free and unimpeded consular access to death row prisoner Kulbhushan Jadhav.
Pakistani security officials did not allow the Consular Officers to get Mr. Jadhav’s consent for legal representation. The consent is necessary for filing a review plea against the death sentence.
India had taken the case to the International Court of Justice which had ordered Pakistan to grant consular access to him.
