QUETTA: Security forces in Balochistan on Thursday claimed the arrest of a man who is 'a serving officer in the Indian Navy and deputed to the Indian intelligence agency Research and Analysis Wing (RAW).'
The man was arrested during a raid in the province, a security official who declined to be named since he was not authorised to speak to the media told DawnNews, giving no details of the exact location the agent was arrested from.
He said the 'RAW officer' had been shifted to Islamabad for interrogation, as he was suspected of involvement in various acts of terrorism and other subversive activities in Balochistan.
"The spy had links with separatist elements in Balochistan," said the security official.
The official added that the individual was also involved in acts of sectarian terrorism and terror attacks in Karachi.
Balochistan Home Minister Mir Sarfaraz Bugti confirmed the arrest of an Indian spy from the southern part of the province.
"The arrest has proved Indian involvement in Balochistan", Bugti said. Bugti added that the Indian spy was sponsoring terrorist and subversive activities in Balochistan.
Bugti last year claimed RAW and NDS are behind the funding and training of Baloch Republican Army (BRA) militants.

RAW’s nefarious designs getting exposed. India needs to realise destabilising a neighbouring country will only hurt them more at the end by such activities of covert terrorism. They need to accept Pakistan as reality and policies of subversion are destabilising the region.

But our foreign office is the worst performing organ of the government. They are unable to tell the world about the state terrorism by India. USA is always in hurry to ask us to find and punish the culprits of Pathankot and Mumbai but our incompetent foreign office is totally unable to make them see the other side of the coin.

RAW is actively involved in such subversive activities operating from Afghanistan. They are operating all over Pakistan especially in Baluchistan. The RAW agents are recruiting local elements to carry out terrorism. Most of the inter sect killings are done by these state actors of India. Pakistan should raise the issue of terrorists activities in Pakistan by India's RAW agents in all international forum & organisations including UN & security council.
