Pakistan has said it retained the shoes of Indian prisoner Kulbhushan Jadhav’s wife after finding some “‘metallic” substance and sent those for forensic examination to establish the nature of the suspected object.
Pakistani media reports quoted Foreign Office Spokesperson Mohammad Faisal as saying that the authorities were ascertaining whether the “metallic” object in the shoes was “a camera or a recording chip.”
India has charged that Jadhav’s wife’s shoes were removed during the security check and never returned and warned against “any mischievous intent in this regard”.
