The Indian Spy Kulbhushan Jadhav case has taken another twist after his arranged meeting with his family in Islamabad last year. In a recently released video by Pakistan, the former Navy Commander and RAW spy has shown anger and distrust in the Indian authorities.
In the video message, screened for the media by the Foreign Office, Kulbhushan seemed to be extremely annoyed by Indian authorities who still would not accept that Kulbhushan was a part of India’s Research & Analysis Wing (RAW).
The more serious allegation Kulbhushan laid down was that after the 25th December meeting, he had seen fear in the eyes of his mother and wife, alleging that the Indian diplomat who accompanied them had been shouting at the women, making them panic.
Jadhav against showed admiration for Pakistani officials by saying that his mother and wife were happy to see him and he was very thankful to Pakistan, for making the meeting happen on humanitarian grounds. Currently, Kulbhushan is extremely angry with Indian authorities for not accepting him as one of their own – comparing it to leaving a man behind in battle.
“I want to tell India that I am a commissioned officer in the Indian Navy. But why are they lying about my working for an intelligence agency?“Said Jadhav, addressing the Indian nation in the video.
It seems that currently, Pakistan is the only ally Kulbhushan has, as India has forgotten one of their own already. The Indian government took the matter to the International Court Justice (ICJ), which has stayed his execution.
On March 3, 2016, Pakistan’s security forces caught a man from Mashkel, Balochistan, after conducting a counter-terrorism operation. His name was Kulbhushan Jadhav. Jadhav, upon being captured and remanded, made the headlines accepting that he was indeed an Indian spy, a RAW agent.
Kulbhushan Jadhav alias Hussain Mubarek Patel came into Pakistan on an Iranian passport. He was arrested for espionage and sabotage activities. It was later proven that Jadhav belonged to the Indian Navy – posted under the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW). The Indian naval officer had confessed to committing and planning subversive activities inside Pakistan, especially in Balochistan and Karachi.
