The interview was published by Dawn, a prominent English newspaper of Pakistan. “This interview has not been denied,” he said while placing it forward as evidence.
India has sought to rescue Jadhav from the death sentence handed out to him by a Pakistani military court on the charges of espionage and terrorism.
On May 12, Nawaz gave an interview to Dawn in which he had stated, “Militant organisations are active. Call them non-state actors, should we allow them to cross the border and kill 150 people in Mumbai? Explain it to me. Why can’t we complete the trial?”
