| Indian intelligence says it has evidence to link officers of the Pakistani High Commission in New Delhi to covert activities in the North-East. Two suspected ISI operatives were arrested Assam. Documentary evidence to indict Pakistan was reportedly recovered from the two who have been identified as Shauqat Cheema and Shamsher Hussain. The pair had phone numbers of the Pakistani High Commission in New Delhi, and the extension number of three of their ‘contacts’—Altaf Hussain, Naseer Mahmoud and Inamul Haque—in the visa, media and research sections of the mission. The men also had phone numbers of ISI officers in Pakistan, including the Deputy Director General I (External) and operatives of the ISI’s Joint Intelligence North (JIN), the Joint Intelligence Miscellaneous (JIM) and the powerful Joint Intelligence X (JIX). These divisions conduct operations in Kashmir and the North-East as well as Bangladesh. |
