Mahashivratri: Kulbhushan Jadhav's parents offer prayers at Mumbai's Kashi Vishveshwar Mandir
India TV NewsParents of Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav, who is still in the custody of Pakistan on the false charge of being a spy, on Friday offered prayers at the Kashi Vishveshwar Mandir in Matunga area of Mumbai, on the occasion of Maha Shivaratri. In December, the Ministry of External Affairs had said that there is 'some communication' going on between India and Pakistan over granting consular access to Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav, as per the ruling of Hague-based International Court of Justice. On September 2, India's Deputy High Commissioner to Pakistan Gaurav Ahluwalia met Jadhav in Islamabad after Pakistan granted consular access to the former naval officer. In July, the ICJ, by a vote of 15-1, had upheld India's claim that Pakistan has committed an egregious violation of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations on several counts.
