Pakistan on Thursday officially disclosed that Indian diplomats working in Islamabad are “under-cover agents”.
Islamabad’s Foreign Office claimed that eight Indian diplomats and staff allegedly belonging to the Indian intelligence agencies RAW and Intelligence Bureau (IB) have been found “involved in subversive activities” in Pakistan “under the garb” of diplomatic assignments.
This was stated by Foreign Office Spokesperson Nafees Zakaria at his weekly news briefing in Islamabad this evening.
Zakaria named RAW’s operatives as Rajesh Kumar Agnihotri, Commercial Counsellor; RAW’s station chief: Anurag Singh, 1st Secy Commercial; Amerdeep Singh Bhatti, Attache Visa; Dharmendra Sodhi, Staff Member; Vijay Kumar Verma, Staff; and Madhavan Nanda Kumar Staff; the two from IB: Balbir Singh, 1st Secy Press & Info. IB Station Chief; and Jayabalan Senthil, Asstt Personnel Welfare Officer.
The Spokesperson claimed that Surjeet Singh who was declared persona non-grata some days back was also an IB operative working under Balbir Singh.
“Activities of these operatives included espionage, subversion and supporting of terrorist activities in Balochistan and Sindh, especially Karachi, sabotage CPEC, and fuel instability in the two provinces and create unrest in GB,” the FO spokesperson added.
“They were also involved to damage Pakistan-Afghanistan relations with a variety of activities, infiltrate Indian agents into social, media and political circles to propaganda purposes and activities detrimental to Pakistan’s interests. They were also involved in to handle factions of TTP, instigate religious minorities, fuel sectarianism and malign Pakistan with propaganda on human rights issues,” the spokesperson alleged.
Zakaria said, “Pakistan is disappointed that India has not only been found involved in promoting terrorist activities and terror financing as was disclosed by Kulbhushan Yadav but India has also been using its diplomatic mission for its nefarious designs.”
To a question, Zakaria said this matter is under consideration with the concerned authorities who will determine the next course of action.
Answering a question, he said the case of Kulboshan Yadev is under investigation. He said that dossier in this regard will be presented to the international community and UN Secretary General at appropriate time.
The FO Spokesperson said Pakistan has called back six members working in Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi because “they are unable to perform their duties after India levelled baseless allegations on them”.
Notably, India has detained a staffer of Pakistan High Commission working in New Delhi last week. Identified as Mehmood Akhter, he was released and forced to leave India in 24 hours.
Further, the FO spokesperson said, “Indian occupation forces have continued killing defenceless Kashmiris, continuously blinding Kashmiri youth including minors and constantly committing crimes against humanity for 4 months now. They are desperate to hide their crimes against humanity from the international community’s scrutiny.”
“In desperation,” he added, “they have turned their guns on innocent civilians across LoC in AJK and across Working Boundary in Pakistani territory. Indian unprovoked firing has taken a huge toll on innocent civilians.”
“Pakistan’s efforts to highlight Indian atrocities in Occupied Kashmir are yielding results. There is growing demand from the international community for sending fact finding mission to Indian Occupied Kashmir,” he said.
