Kulbhushan Jadhav ten times bigger terrorist than Azamal Kasab : Pervez Musharraf
"Jadhav is obviously ten times bigger culprit than Kasab. Dunno how many people he might have gotten killed through bomb blasts and sabotage activities,” Musharraf told Pakistan's ARY News.
Musharraf also criticised Pakistan’s decision to appear at ICJ on the issue of Jadhav's death sentence : “We should not have appeared at ICJ. We should have stood firm on our position that the matter is a security issue,” he said.
“No one has the right to decide our security issues or advice us on it. It is our internal matter,” added.
Musharraf also cited a case of 1982 at ICJ, in which two Germans, who were scheduled to be given capital punishment in US, were executed even after the case went to the international court.
Jadhav was given a death sentence by a Pakistan military court on charges of espionage.
Denying that Jadhav ever worked as a spy India took up the case with ICJ this month. The international court issued a stay order on Jadhav's death sentence until the final verdict.
