Glass barrier between Jadhav family; defence experts call it 'inhumane'

Hours after Kulbhushan Jadhav's mother and wife met him in Pakistan's Islamabad, with a glass barrier in between, defence experts criticised the meeting and termed it as inhuman.

Speaking to ANI, Major General (retired) GD Bakshi said, "Today the spokesperson of Pakistan's foreign ministry was acting like he is the reincarnation of Mother Teresa. Pakistan gave proof of their inhuman nature. A mother, who has not seen her son for 22 months, went to meet him with a lot of expectations, but she was allowed to see him through a glass."

GD Bakshi further claimed that Pakistan abducted Jadhav from Chabahar airport and tortured him.

"Pakistan abducted Kulbhushan from Chabahar and took him to Balochistan and made him confess mant thing. On the basis of confessions, Jadhav was sentenced to death by a Field General Court Martial (FGCM) in Pakistan. There are no evidences against him," he added.

Lieutenant General (Retd.) Raj Kadyan also said that the meeting that took place on Monday cannot be called a family meeting.

Speaking to ANI, he said, "There were hopes that the family will be given some kind of privacy but they meet Jadhav through a glass. So what had happened today cannot be called a family meeting."
