And the actual news here
The court found by 15 votes to 1 that Pakistan had breached Jadhav’s rights under the Vienna convention on consular relations by not allowing Indian diplomats to visit him in jail, according to the document.
The ICJ has no means to enforce its rulings which are final and without appeal. It is unclear from the ruling what exactly would constitute an effective review of Jadhav’s sentence.
World Court orders review of Pakistan death sentence for Indian convicted of spying
The World Court on Wednesday ordered Pakistan to review the death penalty given in 2017 to former Indian navy commander Kulbhushan Sudhir Jadhav who was convicted of being a spy.www.reuters.com
Mostly in favour of Pakistan as only a review of the sentence is asked, not to over turn, nor was trial declared illegal or unfair nor was he declared innocent and ordered free as India wanted, but instead India gets consular access to Patel Bhai.
In laymans terms. Patel Bhai is an Indian spy and had a fair trial only the ICJ is asking for leniency in the death sentence
Will he be hanged now?
Effective review = case should be heard again with consular access which was violated by Pakistan thinking that Pakistan is not obliged to provide consular access but now court declares that Pakistan is obliged to provide consular access in the cases of espionage under Geneva convention and other agreements with India
Anyway , Pakistan is not bound to act on the verdicts of International court of Justice
