A US national was arrested on espionage charge after he was found roaming near sensitive nuclear installations in Fatehjang, reported a private TV channel reported on Saturday. According to sources, Mathieu Craig, who is staying at Sector G-8 of Islamabad, told the police that he lost his way and entered the area. It is said that Craig arrived Pakistan on a business visa but staying in the federal capital for a long time after marrying a local woman. Furthermore, the car in which he was travelling is registered in Jacobabad. Meanwhile, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) stopped an American national Aaron Mark DeHaven at the Peshawar airport as he was facing a lawsuit over the charges of staying illegally in the country.
According to media reports, DeHaven was off-loaded form a Dubai-bound flight as he planned to leave for US via the Gulf state, as the FIA officials said the US national could not be allowed to leave Pakistan because of the pending case. They said DeHaven had been black listed and required clearance from the Interior Ministry. On the other hand, the defence counsel is arguing that the Ministry of Interior has cleared his client who is now permitted to travel abroad. A local court on March 08 released DeHaven on bail after he was arrested in Peshawar.
