Jadhav was a commander of the Indian Navy associated with the Indian spy agency Research and Analysis Wing (RAW). He was arrested on March 3, 2016, from Balochistan on allegations of espionage and terrorism.
Jadhav, in his trial at a military court, had confessed to his involvement in terrorist plots across Pakistan.
The spy was subsequently sentenced to death in 2017. However, India insisted that Jadhav was not a spy, claiming he was kidnapped from Iran.
