Pak in search of those interested in espionage activities
10/28/2016 9:01:56 PM
Pakistani agencies have stepped up their espionage activities in
order to find out the fighting capacity of India. A few days ago one Indian had been arrested on the Jammu border for procuring and delivering vital information to Pakistan. This was followed by a sensational disclosure that two persons were engaged in passing on information about the Army and paramilitary forces' deployment to agencies across the border. And the two, both from Rajasthan, were in touch with some official of the Pakistan High Commission in Delhi to whom they were supplying the information. Two persons have been arrested by the Delhi Police's Crime Branch for selling information related to the BSF and Indian Army's deployment in the border areas to Pakistan. Several defence related maps and secret documents were recovered from the two spies, the police claimed. The two arrested are Maulana Ramzan Khan and Subhash Jangir, both residents of Nagaur in Rajasthan. Khan is a teacher in a mosque there and Jangir ran a local business that was suffering heavy losses, police said. The police also nabbed a Pakistan High Commission staffer when he was receiving secret documents from the two persons. However, the staffer, who the police said was an ISI agent, was let off after he claimed diplomatic immunity.
Ravindra Yadav, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) said Mehmood Akhtar was deployed at the visa office at the Pakistan High Commission office for the last two-and-a-half-years. He was deployed there to scout for potential spies while people came seeking visas for Pakistan. He will be deported to Pakistan within 48 hours, Meanwhile, Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit was summoned to the Ministry of External Affairs and Foreign Secretary Jaishankar told him that Akhtar has been declared persona non grata for espionage activities. Mr. Yadav did not rule out the role of some BSF personnel in the case. The arrested men have spoken about the possibility of the BSF personnel being honey trapped into sharing defence related information. That angle was being probed, he said Akhtar was an Hawaldar with the 40 Baloch Regiment and he was roped in by Pakistan's espionage outfit ISI after a rigorous test. When questioned about his identity, he produced an Aadhar card that showed he was a resident of Delhi's Chandni Chowk. The ID card, however, allegedly turned out to be a fake one and Akhtar confessed to being a staffer of the Pakistan High Commission and claimed diplomatic immunity when faced with arrest, said Yadav. The Delhi Police then contacted the Ministry of External Affairs who, in turn, contacted the Pakistan High Commission officers, who confirmed that Akhtar was working with them.
On how many ground Pakistan will continue to fight India. On one side its troops and Rangers continue to resort to unprovoked ceasefire violations forcing several thousand people, living in the border areas, to flee to safer places. On the other side troops and the Rangers continue to indulge in the game of pushing militants into Jammu and Kashmir. Still Imran Khan and other leaders in Pakistan do not bother to check their records and after that start blaming India. It is all the result of one surgical operation that Indian troops carried out on the LOC. Pakistan feels slighted by the surgical operation and wants to avenge the killing of over 300 militants in the operation. Pakistan has become so desperate that it does ignore the advice from the US functionaries. These US functionaries have suggested to Pakistan to shut down arms training camps for militants and start multidimensional operations against the terrorists.
