Islamabad: Pakistan has prepared a new dossier about alleged militant activities of Indian prisoner on death row Kulbhushan Jadhav and will share it with the UN and foreign envoys stationed in Islamabad, media reports have said.
The new dossier is based on Mr Jadhav's early testimonial and statements given in front of the Field General Court Martial, reports said.
The document contains the attested report of Court Martial General, as well as the court proceedings timeline, The Nation reported.
Kulbhushan Jadhav, 46, was tried through Field General Court Martial (FGCM) under the Pakistan Army Act (PAA) and was awarded the death sentence. Army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa confirmed the death sentence last week.
The documents will also contain details of arrests and raids done by Pakistan security agencies on Mr Jadhav's tip-offs. "The dossier will be handed over to different ambassadors in Islamabad. The Pakistani envoys across the world will also present it to their host states," the paper said.
The document will also be shared with the United Nations and other global organisations, it added.
On Friday, Indian High Commissioner Gautam Bambawale said India would appeal against the death sentence to Kulbhushan Jadhav and demanded from Pakistan a certified copy of the charge-sheet as well as the army court order in the case, besides seeking consular access to the retired Indian navy man. Pakistan claims its security forces had arrested Mr Jadhav from the restive Balochistan province on March 3 last year after he reportedly entered from Iran.
The Pakistan Army had also released a "confessional video" of Mr Jadhav after his arrest.
India had acknowledged that Mr Jadhav had served with the navy but denied that he has any connection with the government.
The Jadhav episode could further strain the India- Pakistan ties which were hit after attacks in Pathankot and Uri by Pakistan-based terrorists last year.
The new dossier is based on Mr Jadhav's early testimonial and statements given in front of the Field General Court Martial, reports said.
The document contains the attested report of Court Martial General, as well as the court proceedings timeline, The Nation reported.
The documents will also contain details of arrests and raids done by Pakistan security agencies on Mr Jadhav's tip-offs. "The dossier will be handed over to different ambassadors in Islamabad. The Pakistani envoys across the world will also present it to their host states," the paper said.
