The counsel for the Indian High Commission informed the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Tuesday that Deputy High Commissioner Gaurav Ahluwalia showed his intent to explain India’s stance over appointment of counsel for Indian spy Kalbhushan Jadhav but was also concerned about the detention of another Indian national convicted of espionage, Ismail, even after the latter had served out his term.

Appearing before the IHC larger bench, the counsel for the Indian High Commission, Barrister Shahnawaz Noon, apprised the court that the deputy high commissioner with the approval of the court could explain India’s stance over the appointment of counsel for Jadhav.

Naval Commander Jadhav, a senior officer of India’s intelligence agency, Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), was sentenced to death by Field General Court Martial in Pakistan on April 10, 2017 after a year-long trial for fomenting terrorism in Balochistan and Sindh. He was arrested in Balochistan in March 2016.
