India is and was part of UN and ICJ but won cases on same basis. we did it this time. timely declaration just days before death sentence.You just made that up?? Have you ever read the Vienna Conventions on consular access?? Nowhere does it make a distinction between civilian and spy - it just says 'nationals'
That kind of wrong/nonsensical information is often belted out by news channels who absolutely do no research, but say it because the people Pakistanis will it!!!
Also, even if you were right that spies get special treatment (which I'll restate is incorrect), then how does one establish that the arrested person is a spy??? By your logic, you can catch a person of any nationality, declare him a spy and kill him - with no chargesheet, no evidence and no trial. It's ridiculous!!!
HAHA!! Wishful thinking!!
Pakistan still hasn't exited from the 'Vienna convention on consular access'!! What India is seeking is consular access - not asking to retry Kulbhushan in ICJ!!! Denial of consular access is deemed as wrongful prosecution and hence maybe a grounds for acquital (that's how legal system works). Unless Pakistan agrees to an open trial!! The guy who wrote the news article is not a lawyer - just another wannabe journalist seeking attention!!!
If Pakistanis are still oblivious of the game that's unfolding, then my sympathies!!
one has to be completely numb to timelines and reality to not see what actually is happening!! Its quite obvious that the someone is throwing a spanner in the India-Pakistan relationship (by threatening to hang an innocent Indian national); Nawaz Sharif's annoyance is too loud by his 'complete silence' on the issue (ever since the issue was brought up). Sajjan Jindal obviously got the buy-in from Nawaz Sharif (in his recent visit) that taking the issue to ICJ would give Nawaz a way out and not appear that he was acquiescing to the Indian demands!!!
One has to remember that Pakistan assassinated its own Madr-e-Millat (Mother of the nation) Fatima Jinnah accusing her of being an Indian spy. So how can anyone believe anything that Pakistan says.....and the truth is no one in the world believes Pakistan!!!
and I am not saying this. the most authentic Indian news paper Hindu said it.
