Thackeray asks government to save Kulbhushan

Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray on Monday urged the government to take "extreme steps" to save the Indian 'spy' sentenced to death in Pakistan.

In Delhi to attend an NDA meeting, Thackeray said: "What has happened is unfortunate. The government should take extreme steps if required."

Kulbhushan Jadhav, arrested in Pakistan last year and accused of spying and waging war against Islamabad, was sentenced to death earlier on Monday by the Pakistani military.
