Spy Agencies of Neighbours Behind Afghan Insecurity: NDS
2011-08-29
[Tolo News] Spy organizations related to some of Afghan neighbours are making efforts to increase insecurity in the regions that were recently transitioned to Afghan cops, a bigwig in Afghan intelligence said.

The National Directorate of Security (NDS) said that 15 myrmidons, including two Pak citizens have been jugged over the past week.

The two Pak citizens were appointed by Pakistain's Inter-Services Intelligence to carry out myrmidon attacks in Afghanistan, officials said.

It is believed that two Pak citizens had a key role in some of the deadliest myrmidon attacks that shook the capital Kabul.

"They have confessed during the investigations that they were attracted by a person named Hossain Ali, working at the level of a manager in ISI, and they were assigned to destroy Afghanistan's big establishments, including long bridges and power dams and government institutions," NDS Spokesman Lotfullah Mashal said.

Last week nine members of an myrmidon group along with their operation chiefs were jugged in western Herat
...a venerable old Persian-speaking city in western Afghanistan, populated mostly by Tadjiks, which is why it's not as blood-soaked as areas controlled by Pashtuns...
province by Afghan cops, Mr Lotfullah Mashal said.

Earlier a video tape from Intercontinental Hotel's surveillance camera that captured the deadly overnight intercontinental attack showed that the assailants were receiving instructions by phone from their leaders in Pakistain.

Haqqani myrmidon network, which is active in the lawless tribal areas of Pakistain, is considered responsible for most of the deadliest attacks in Afghanistan.

Intehwesting because India's feared + allegedly PAK-trained SOMALI PIRATES currently operate mainly in WEST INDIAN OCEAN, NOT EAST, albeit the latter are steadily expanding their Pirate operating arcs.
