External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said Jadhav was “visibly under stress” and indicated that clearly to the Indian consular officers, adding the arrangements did not permit a free conversation between them. He said the consular officers could not engage Jadhav on his legal rights and were prevented from obtaining his written consent for arranging his legal representation. Earlier, Pakistan announced that it provided consular access to Jadhav ahead of a deadline to file a review petition against his conviction by a military court on charges of espionage and terrorism.
