KARACHI: Pakistan has given New Delhi consular access to arrested Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav, who will be meeting his mother and wife at the Foreign Office on Monday.

Indian Deputy High Commissioner JP Singh will also be present at Monday's meeting Jadhav and his family.

The mother and wife of the arrested Indian spy will arrive in Pakistan on Monday and will return after the meeting.

Commander Jadhav ? an on-duty Indian navy officer working for Indian covert agency Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) ? was arrested on March 3, 2016, from Balochistan, after he entered into Pakistan from Iran.

On Saturday, Indian authorities shared the itinerary of convicted Indian spy Kulbhusahn Jhadav's family.

"India informs that the mother and wife of Commander Jadhav will arrive by commercial flight on 25 Dec and leave the same day. Indian DHC in Islamabad will be the accompanying diplomat," FO spokesperson Dr Mohammad Faisal had said on Twitter.

Pakistani authorities had earlier issued an ultimatum to India, stating that it would be difficult to arrange a meeting between Jhadav and his family (wife and mother) if the itinerary of the latter was not shared with Pakistan by midnight on Saturday.

Arrest, confession, sentencing

Jadhav alias Hussein Mubarak Patel, was arrested on March 3, 2016 in a ?counter-intelligence operation? from Mashkel area of Balochistan for his involvement in espionage and sabotage activities in Pakistan.

The incarcerated RAW agent, in his video statement, has confessed to involvement in sabotage and espionage inside Pakistan, which has also been the crux of Islamabad?s case in the ICJ.

On April 10, a Field General Court Martial ? under the Pakistan Army Act, 1952, and Official Secrets Act, 1923 ? awarded death sentence to Jadhav for espionage and sabotage.

Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa ratified the sentencing by the army tribunal.

Jadhav has since been on the death row awaiting appeals.
