Geo TV and Dawn reported that Aziz had said the dossier on Jadhav contained mere statements. “It did not have any conclusive evidence,” he was quoted saying.

The Pakistan Army had released a “confessional video” of Jadhav in which he is heard saying that he was a serving Indian Navy officer. India has acknowledged Jadhav as a retired Navy officer, but had denied the allegation that he was in any way connected to the government.

“The Advisor had said that the investigations regarding the network of Kulbhushan Yadav are ongoing and the dossier shall be completed upon conclusion of the investigation. There is irrefutable proof against Kulbhushan Yadav, who had also made a public confession in March this year,” the Pakistan foreign ministry spokesperson said.
