"Pakistan has been saying that handing over of wanted people between the two countries, which have not signed an extradition treaty, will be based on 'reciprocation'."
The lack of an extradition treaty is the fault of the UK and their opposition to any death penalty. My understanding is that there was a finalized agreement 5 months ago, but it looks like it wasn't signed.
side note:
The Pakistani general elections this year are going to change the face of the region, possibly in a dramatic fashion.

Thank you for the additional notation, HipShot.
OPINION: I'm not looking forward to the elections.
Time will tell how this will all turn out.
