The National Assembly on Monday extended the International Court of Justice (Review and Re-consideration) Ordinance meant to facilitate convicted Indian "spy" Kulbhushan Jadhav through a voice vote for four months.

The ordinance that was set to expire on Sept 17 allows the Indian Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) operative, who was sentenced to death by a military court for fomenting terrorism in Pakistan, to file an appeal against his conviction in a high court.

The NA also adopted motions seeking to refer two Financial Action Task Force-related bills, which were passed by the lower house and rejected by the upper house of parliament last month, to the joint sitting of parliament for consideration and passage. The bills included Anti-Money Laundering (Second Amendment) Bill and Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) Waqf Properties Bill.
