Pakistan govt allows Kulbhushan Jadhav to meet wife
Islamabad, Nov 10 (IBNS):The Pakistan government has allowed Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav's wife to meet him 'on humanitarian grounds'.
Kulbhushan Jadhav is an Indian national on death row in Pakistan.
"The Government of Pakistan has decided to arrange a meeting of Commander Kulbhudhan Jhadev with his wife, in Pakistan, purely on humanitarian grounds. A Note Verbale to this effect has been sent to the Indian High Commission in Islamabad, today," Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
Handing out India a big diplomatic victory, International Court of Justice in May stayed the execution of former Indian Navy officer Kulbhushan Jadhav, ordering Pakistan not to hang him pending a final decision.
A Pakistani court had earlier sentenced him to death after being convicted of espionage.
