Toomaj Salehi risks being hanged after the conviction on the Shariah charge of "corruption on Earth" by a Revolutionary Court
The India prime minister was warmly received in Abu Dhabi by top UAE officials and Indian and UAE ambassadors.
Ours is not a relationship dominated by statistics. It is a strategic partnership based on shared vision and objectives," said Modi who is here to receive the Order of Zayed, the UAE's highest civilian honour.
He lauded Sheikh Mohamed for his initiatives that promote regional peace, and said both sides share a common vision. The excellent rapport he has with Sheikh Mohamed has been a "driving force in realising the true potential of the relationship".
On the mandate of the 2019 election which brought his party to power, he said people want stability and a firm leadership.
He said the UAE-Indian partnership has the heft to ride over global economic headwinds that foretell a recession. He said both sides complement each other's growth story.
The Indian prime minister said this is the best time to invest in India, and invited Indian expatriates to join the country's 'Make in India' initiatives.
India has been a leading voice in cracking down on terrorism and money laundering, he said.
