Mufti Shah Mir, a Pakistani man who allegedly aided ISI in abducting former Indian Navy officer Kulbhushan Jadhav from Iran, was shot dead by unidentified gunmen. Jadhav, accused of espionage, was sentenced to death by Pakistan in 2017, leading to a major diplomatic standoff with India. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) later stayed his execution and directed Pakistan to allow consular access. Mir’s killing raises new questions about Pakistan’s internal security and the lingering impact of the Jadhav case. Investigations into the assassination are ongoing, but the perpetrators remain unidentified.
