The Crime Branch of Delhi Police on Saturday confirmed filing documents related to an ISI spy racket that operated from Pakistan High Commission.
It maybe recalled that four persons were arrested including the Personal Secretary to Rajya Sabha MP Munnawar Salim. The MP is a witness in the case.
According to the chargesheet, the documents seized included training in the Sir Creek sector, marine battalion at Ormara upto 290 kilometres assessing Pakistan deployment in Sir Creek sector, Creek areas in international sea upto 3300 square kilometers, maps with confidential legends, a diagrammatic fire plan, standing committee reports of defence and a lay down attachment of Army's surface to air missile programme.
What is most damming in the report prepared by a director of the Directorate of Military Intelligence is confirmation of the deployment of Pakistan Navy and Marines in Sir Creek Area of International Border with Pakistan.
The chargesheet further states that, 'documents related to the army and the BSF pertain to the western border and the Sir Creek areas. This includes logistic model and fire plan of army'.?
While the report from the BSF is awaited, the Indian Air Force has confirmed, that the 'documents were secret and confidential in nature.
Documents seized from personal secretary of SP leader are not classified in nature. However, he was part of conspiracy to leak documents for long.
Since the Pakistan agent enjoyed diplomatic immunity, he could not be chargesheeted but his confessional statement, throws light on how the racket operated. For the first time, he named the station chief of the Inter Services Intelligence . He was identified as ?Syed Farooq Habib, he said he was first posted in the Baloch Regiment and subsequently got deputed to ISI.
What is most alarming is the fact that he has confessed that the ISI have moles in the para and the army.
