Kulbhushan Jadhav’s father said hopeful prayer after Pakistan pushes the Right to Appeal Bill

Former Indian Navy officer Kulbhushan Jadhav’s father Sudhir Jadhav on Friday welcomed the passage of a law in the Pakistan National Assembly that would allow his son to be tried again in the case against him. “We have been hearing the news since morning. Former assistant commissioner of police Sudhir Jadhav told The Indian Express, “We are waiting and watching whatever comes up. “It’s good news, it’s God’s will, we’re hoping and praying.” Pakistan’s National Assembly on Thursday approved a bill that would give Jadhav the right to appeal in a civilian court against his conviction and death sentence by a military court. The Bill will also allow Jadhav consular access as per the ICJ’s decision. The ICJ (Review and Reconsideration) Bill, the lower house of the Parliament, 2020 passed. The bill aims to allow consular access to Jadhav in line with the decision of the International Court of Justice. The bill will now be introduced in the Senate and if passed by the Upper House without any amendments, it will go to the President for final approval. .
