[DAWN] The Foreign Office (FO) on Thursday said eight Indian 'diplomats' in Pakistain ─ allegedly members of the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW... India's Research and Analysis Wing, Pakistain's equivalent of the Boogie Man...
) and Indian Intelligence Bureau (IB) ─ are suspected of involvement in terrorist and subversive activities.
FO Spokesman Nafees Zakaria during a weekly press briefing in Islamabad said, "As you are aware, a number of Indian diplomats and staff belonging to Indian intelligence agencies RAW and IB have been found involved in coordinating terrorist and subversive activities in Pakistain under the garb of diplomatic assignments."
Zakaria provided details of the activities of the 'undercover agents', alleging that the suspected RAW and IB operatives handled Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) factions, fueled secatarianism in Pakistain and created unrest in Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
, Sindh, and Gilgit-Balistan (GB).
The FO claimed that Indian High Commission official Surjeet Singh who was declared persona non-grata a few days ago was also an IB operative working under Balbir Singh.
"Surjeet was using a fake identity as Abdul Hafeez pretending to be a telecom company Warid’s employee," the FO alleged.
"We are disappointed that India has not only been found involved in promoting terrorist activities and terror financing as was disclosed by Kulbhushan Yadhav, and further confirmed by the statements at the highest political level on Aug 15 and earlier during a visit to Dhaka... India has also been using its diplomatic mission for its nefarious designs," the FO said.
