India in September 2017 accused Pakistan of violating the Vienna Convention by not giving consular access to Jadhav.
A 11-judge bench of the International Court of Justice stayed the execution of Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav by Pakistani military court until further notice, while observing that prima facie the Vienna Convention will apply in the Kulbhushan Jadhav case.
