ISLAMABAD -- Pakistan on Sunday rejected 'inaccurate statements' made by the Indian counsel in the Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav case.

Responding to media queries, Foreign Office spokesperson Aisha Farooqui said: 'We firmly reject the Indian counsel's baseless and inaccurate assertion that Pakistan has not complied with the International Court of Justice's judgement in the case. Pakistan has fully complied with the judgement and remains committed to continue doing so as the case proceeds further,' she said.

The Foreign Office said in a statement that Pakistan had 'noted the statements made in an online lecture on 03 May 2020 by Mr Harish Salve, India's legal counsel in the Kulbhushan Jadhav case. While suggesting that India may have to go back to International Court of Justice (ICJ), Mr Salve has made certain statements which are contrary to the facts of the case'.

The FO statement said that Pakistan had granted India consular access to Commander Jadhav and was processing measures for effective review and reconsideration of his case as per the guidelines provided by the ICJ in its judgement.

FO says measures are afoot for review of case
