Pakistan allows Jadhav to meet wife, mother on Dec 25

Islamabad: Pakistan today said it will allow convicted Indian death row prisoner Kulbhushan Jadhav to meet his wife and mother on December 25.

In a rare move, Jadhav was sentenced to death by a Pakistani military court in April on charges of espionage and terrorism. The International Court of Justice in May halted his execution on India’s appeal.

Jadhav has been allowed to meet his wife and mother on December 25, Foreign Office spokesman Mohammad Faisal said.

During his weekly news briefing, the spokesman said a staff member from the Indian embassy will also be present during the meeting.
