Davis, a CIA agent killed two Pakistani national in broad daylight at a traffic
signal in Lahore. Davis was charged with murder case but Americans took the
matter seriously and forced Pakistan Government to release him after payment of
millions of dollars to deceased's families. This shows that powerful
nations value the life of their citizens and particularly those who work for
government. They would go all the way to save the life of their citizens in a
foreign country even if he/she is guilty. Many Indian spies or nationals have
been captured in foreign countries including Pakistan in past, but India never
went all out to save their life. This time India went to ICJ (International
Court of Justice) to save Kulbhushan’s life. It shows a change in Indian policy
under Modi. India is acting live a country which values its citizens and
willing to take extra mile to save their life.Kulbhushan
Jadhav is a former Indian Navy officer who was dhow some business near the
Iranian port of Chabhar. Pakistan claims that Jadhav was captured near a remote
town of Baluchistan called Mashke near the Iranian border. As per some
Indian newspaper reports, it is believed that Jadhav may not be just doing dhow
business in Iran. He probably transported drugs and contraband, either
independently, or for the Baloch drug cartel. It was also reported in media that
Jadhav had approached Indian spy agency RAW many times to work for them but his
offer was rejected every time. Now Indian security establishment believed that Jadhav
may have been fooled by some Baloch drug dealers and those dealers might have
handed him to Pakistani spy agency ISI. There are many loopholes in Pakistani
theory that Jadhav is an Indian spy like Countries don’t send former military
officers as a spy, spy is trained in local custom & language, no spy acknowledges
all the charges, spy agency don’t make a fake passport on correct address etc. Even
a former Pak military has said that Jadhav was captured inside Iran not
Pakistan. Jadhav was not given a proper trial. He was sentenced to death by a
summary military trail.Let us
leave the legal matters of ICJ regarding consular access, Vienna convention and
2008 Indio-Pak agreement on consular access. The most important question is
that why India took such effort to take the matter. There are two explanations apart
from the fact that Modi Government is now willing to save Indian live abroad. First
one is that India wants to expose Pakistan on this matter. How can a military court
martial retired officer of another country? And Pakistan should give a fair trial
to an Indian national irrespective of his involvement in terrorism. Another
point is that India wants to keep Pakistan engaged with Kulbhushan topic. Whole
Pakistan Media is behind this topic. It is like hanging a bell in the neck of a
bull and bull will be busy with that bell. It is very difficult for India to
save the life of Kulbhushan Jadhav. But this stay order in ICJ on his hanging
has given a window of opportunity to India to highlight this matter in front of
world. Who knows India might attempt a cold war type spy swap? As per Pakistani
Media reports India might have kidnapped retired Pak Army Lt Col Mohammed
Habib Zahir and he
can be used to swap Jadav. Anything is possible in diplomacy and we can’t rule
out any option. But we should praise Indian Government to take this extreme
step to save an Indian life.
