THE HAGUE: The International Court of Justice (ICJ) today denied permission to Pakistan to play a purported “confessional” video of retired Indian Navy officer Kulbhushan Jadhav at a public hearing here.
To support its allegations that Jadhav was sent by India to carry out spying and espionage activities in Pakistan and was arrested from the restive Balochistan province, Pakistan delegation at the ICJ sought permission to play the purported video showing the Indian national admitting that he was a “spy”.
However, the ICJ denied permission to the Pakistani side to play the video at the hearing, Indian officials in New Delhi said.
Earlier, India demanded the immediate suspension of Jadhav’s death sentence, expressing fears that Pakistan could execute him even before the hearing at ICJ. (AGENCIES)
