Harish Salve, who fought India’s case at the International Court of Justice against the death penalty given to Kulbhushan Jadhav by Pakistan, has charged Rupee one as fee.
This was stated by the External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj in a tweet in New Delhi yesterday. Her tweet came in response to a tweet which said India could have got any good lawyer with much less fee than what Salve must have charged for fighting the case.
Salve was India’s lead attorney at the ICJ hearing the case of Indian national Jadhav.
