Jadhav, a retired Indian Navy officer was apprehended by Pakistan security forces in Balochistan province of Pakistan. He was charged with espionage, three years back. In April 2007, he was sentenced to death on charges of espionage and terrorism. India took the case against Pakistan’s verdict to the ICJ in May 2017. India claims that Jadhav was denied consular access, which was against the Vienna Convention rules. Both India and Pakistan had signed the Vienna pact. In February, the ICJ held a four day hearing where both India and Pakistan submitted pleas to the along with responses to the questions. Pakistan insisted that the Indian Navy officer was a spy under the Research &amp; Analysis Wing (RAW) and not a businessman. However, India countered these allegations and said that Vienna Convention rules were breached by Pakistan, as they denied consular access to the detained person. India had also questioned the process undertaken to pass the death resolution. It had urged the court to annul Jadhav’s death sentence and sought his immediate release. Pakistan, on its behalf, claimed that Jadhav was arrested by its security forces in March 2016 from Balochistan where he illegally entered from Iran, whereas India insists that he was kidnapped from Iran where he runs a business.

"On June 17, 2020, Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav was invited to file a petition for review and reconsideration of his sentence and conviction. Exercising his legal right he refused to file a petition for review and reconsideration of his sentence and conviction," Pakistan Additional Attorney General Ahmed Irfan claimed on Wednesday. In a press conference, the official said that Jadhav insisted on the mercy petition he filed on April 17, 2017.

The judgement was welcomed across party lines and all thumped the benches as Jaishankar said that the government will vigorously continue its efforts to ensure his safety and well being, and his timely return to India. The ICJ clearly pronounced that the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations was breached by Pakistan as it did not notify India of Jadhav’s detention in time and deprived India of its right to communicate with and provide consular access to Jadhav. It is to be noted that the Court has asked Pakistan to provide for appropriate reparation of its own choice in the case. The minister termed the ICJ verdict as a vindication for not only India and Jadhav but also for all those who believe in the rule of law and respect and work by the international treaties.

<keyword id="6372817" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Harish-Salve">Harish Salve</keyword> is India’s most successful and most expensive lawyer and many of us can’t even afford his legal fees.

Salve, 61, who has a client list featuring Ambanis, Tatas including Ratan Tata, Vodafone and Mittals, had his tryst with legal career when he assisted his father in 1975 in Dilip Kumar’s case, according to the book Legal Eagles, which chronicles his life before he became successful. As a young boy, Salve never wanted to become a lawyer. Astonishing enough, Salve, who at one time also aspired to an engineer, always thought of pursuing chartered accountancy. “My father, however, had given up accountancy and did only income tax matters. This brought him in close proximity to Nani Palkhivala-perhaps the greatest advocate the country has ever known,” said Salve. Born in Nagpur, Salve at one time was studying law and chartered accountancy simultaneously. “My grandfather was a successful criminal lawyer. My father, N.K.P. Salve, was an eminent chartered accountant practising in Nagpur. My mother, Ambriti Salve, was a doctor. So at a very early age, I imbibed professional qualities and values from the two professionals at home,” he said. Apart from being professional, Salve had love for Bollywood too, especially Dilip Kumar. The story does not end here; here are some interesting insights into Salve’s life from The Legal Eagles:
