ISLAMABAD – Following leads provided by an earlier arrest of a local resident recruited by Indian intelligence agencies, a well organised spy network operating from the border areas of Sialkot has been unearthed.
According to intelligence sources, follow-up investigations had led to the arrest of another local working for Indian intelligence agencies, who was facilitating recruitment of agents from the border areas to cross over to India in return for cash, liquor and contraband materials.
The development has confirmed earlier findings that RAW, the Indian agency responsible for espionage operations in Pakistan, was trying to lure locals to cross over to India through the Line of Control (LoC) in Kashmir or the Working Boundary along with weapons. The objective of such an exercise is obviously to malign Pakistan over charges of cross-border terrorism in Kashmir or even the Indian hinterland by conducting fake encounters.
The names of apprehended individuals working for Indian intelligence cannot be disclosed for security reasons, since the investigations had yet to reach conclusion and more arrests were expected, the intelligence sources said. According to the sources, persistent Indian focus on luring Pakistani nationals across the working boundary in Sialkot area, as well as various sectors of the LoC in Kashmir indicated the Indian fixation for implicating Pakistan in manipulated acts of terrorism.
