Pakistan will submit its reply to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on July 17 (tomorrow) with regards to the case of convicted Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav.
Following Jadhav’s arrest and conviction by Pakistan in 2016, India had approached the world court to halt his execution. The reply will be submitted by Foreign Office Director India Dr Fareha Bugti, who has already arrived in The Hague for the purpose. Dr Bugti had also submitted Pakistan’s counter-pleading in December last year.
Pakistan’s 400-page reply – a rejoinder to India’s last reply – has been prepared by a team of experts led by the attorney general and reportedly contains detailed replies to India’s submissions to the international court.
India had submitted its pleadings to the ICJ on September 13, 2017. The Indian stance was dismissed by Pakistan in its counter-pleadings, which were submitted on December 13 last year.
