Border Security Force (BSF) Director General D. K. Pathak on Tuesday branded arrested Abdul Rasheed, who was working at the intelligence wing, as a 'black sheep' and said that the details about the latter leaking information to the Pakistani handler can only be disclosed after further interrogation.
"The BSF is a very big force but unfortunately one person has turned into a black sheep. Interrogation is going on and saying anything at this point of time will be premature. I can say further about the leak of information only after the interrogation," Pathak told the media here.
"He is a low-level functionary, so he does not have much classified information. Further details will be given only after the interrogation," Pathak added.
Two espionage rackets were busted last week with arrests of five people from, New Delhi, Jammu and Kashmir and Kolkata respectively.
