  • Pakistan contacts authorities in Kathmandu

 

Former officer of the Pakistan Army has gone missing from Nepal’s Lumbini area, a private TV channel reported on Saturday.

Mohammad Habib, a retired lieutenant colonel, went missing on April 6, 2017 after which investigation has been launched to recover him. It is to be mentioned here that Habib after the retirement uploaded his CV for a job on the web of UN and Lekstroom.

After this, a man named Thamssion from UK and Indian post website contacted him and called him in Nepal. Lumbini area is about five kilometres away from the Indian border. According to initial investigation, Habib was trapped as Indian Post which contacted him is blocked and all of its record is missing while the number from which Habib Tahir was called is fake.

On Saturday, the Foreign Office also confirmed that a former army officer has gone missing in Nepal. “Habib has been missing since April 6 from the district of Rupandehi in Nepal,” FO spokesperson Nafees Zakaria said.

He also said that the matter has been raised with the Nepalese government and the Pakistan Embassy in Kathmandu is in contact with the local authorities. The Foreign Office is also in contact with the victim’s family members and they had initially reported him missing.

  1. Please cook up the story that the officer in question is picked by Indian intelligence agencies as was kulbhushan Yadav was picked up by ISI from place in Iran bordering Pakistani.

  2. Its pertinent to note that a retired army officer needs employment in Pakistan, most probability he fell into organ harvesters, or just having a hell of time from all that “Pakistan” has been offering
