Your last sentence threw me - are u serious? And if yes expand a bit so we can learn
Pasha had worked for UAE after his retirement. A freaking Ex Premier Intelligence Chief of a Nuclear Country was working for a third party especially a country where American and Israeli influence is at peak. So during his tenure with the Emaratis. You think he wouldnt require to cooperate with the CIA? Even a petty lieutenant who resigns and heads to US is ganged by the CIA for extracting any minimal information. Pasha gave or not, does that matter? He did work with them, I aint trust anybody with my country's secrets.
Same is the case with Raheel Sharif. He is private bodyguard chief of the Saudis and responsible for handling any foreign invasion on the kingdom (at least fighting terrorism isnt his Job Description as given lol). So would he have to pass ahead without being part of the Joint Cooperation with CIA and Mi6 in Saudi Arabia?
Coming to Jahangir Karamat, this man is running a bloody think tank in US. A god damn Ex COAS of a Nuclear Armed Country. You think he'd be having all those Green Cards while being poony and secretive about the State?
Ane here they put an ex Col in Jail, blaming him for espionage because he is critical to GHQ's policies.
valid point about being part of network and not doing the actual extraction of intelligence but allegation of holding such information on a laptop is worse than B Movie plot.
charges are an excuse and to scare everyone away from him.
he was a lawyer after retirement from army and his activities were vocally critical of GHQ role and interference in the political affairs of the country so he was nabbed.
my title is irrelevant to my post.
I am merely making an observation on the news item shared in this thread where the AGP is charging the retired colonel of leaking information about
1. ISI
2. Nuclear secrets
secrets about both are strictly need to know and only the program heads or director generals and COAS are privy to such information and only one at time. one has to be a chief of army staff to have access to both.
its fundamentally , operationally impossible for this colonel in his former capacity to have access to such information unless its passed to him by DG ISI or COAS.
had the AG been honest and said that retired colonel's criticism was not liked by GHQ and he is being made an example then it would've been better.
whether or not he is stupid enough to keep all that in a laptop without encryption later to be found out is debatable and lets agee that he is or the as the AG claims, he and (soon to be found other) agents are dumb enough as well (who might be charged with stealing JF17 secrets, secrect of Ali Baba and secrets of Imran Khans dietry habits)
Exactly, Sir. Not even a petty Somalian Intelligence Havildar would be flagging his plans and networks in a damn laptop. Even B Grade Hindi Movies dont do that now.
Tbh we work like just the Americans. If a man in uniform is retired and part of your business. Let him do whatever he want.
If not, then hang him by the balls for speaking out. If Raheel Sharif, Jahangir Karamat and Pasha wouldnt be the favored children of the GHQ. Karamat wouldnt be running a think tank in US, Raheel Sharif wouldnt be the personal bodyguard of Saudis and Pasha wouldnt have worked long with the Emaratis.
Its funny that how PDF kids ignore Ex Chiefs of the Army working for Foreigners but a tiny colonel who is fighting cases in Court is a threat to them.
