It is worth mentioning here that Jadhav was arrested in March 2016 from Balochistan. The in-service Indian navy officer was tried by a military court and sentenced to death after he confessed to be working against China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), creating unrest in Balochistan and parts of Pakistan on orders of the Indian intelligence agency.

Pakistan had cautioned Indian government on Saturday over convicted spy’s meeting with his family as deadline for a response neared and Indian government was yet to approach Pakistan with a formal nod.

Indian government was warned on Saturday to reply on the issue by midnight otherwise the offer was to be withdrawn.

Foreign Office spokesperson Dr Faisal had stated on the same night that the meeting was confirmed on December 25.

In the statement, FO spokesperson told that India confirmed the plans of arrival of Jadhav’s mother and wife. They will arrive on Monday and leave on the same day along with Indian Deputy High Commissioner (DHC), he had informed.
