Musharraf spits venom, terms Jadhav bigger terrorist than Kasab

New Delhi: Splitting venom against India yet again, former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on Friday termed Kulbhushan Jadhav as a bigger terrorist as compared to one of the perpetrators of the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks Ajmal Kasab.

In an interview to Pakistan's ARY News, Musharraf termed Kasab 'just a pawn' and said Jadhav was giving mileage to terrorism and he is even unknown about the number of lives he had taken during his sabotage activities.

"Kasab was just a pawn but Jadhav was fueling terrorism and may have killed a number of people in sabotage activities," said Pakistan defence dictator Pervez Musharraf.

Slamming his country for appearing in the International Court of Justice, he said India did wrong by going to the ICJ and Pakistan should not have gone there.

"Jadhav's case is a matter of national security. None has the right to dictate us about our society," said Musharraf.

It may be mentioned here that Pakistan has said that it arrested Jadhav last year from Balochistan while India has kept on denying the same, saying, Pak kidnapped the former naval officer from Iran where he went for business purposes.

Earlier, on Thursday, in a big jolt to Pakistan, the International Court of Justice stayed the death sentence given to Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav by Pakistani Military Court until further notice.
