The infusion of fake Indian currency into India to destabilize the economy and fund terror activities were being actively supported by Pakistans high commissions in Dhaka and Kathmandu, a secret report prepared by Indias security agencies says.
DNA had reported on Friday that China was emerging as a major staging post for the fake Indian currency flooding into India. The same report also details how the Pakistani high commissions in Dhaka and Kathmandu were being used to run the fake notes operations through the ISI.
The report prepared jointly by the RAW, the IB, the Department of Revenue Intelligence and the CBI has claimed that Pakistan government officials posted in these high commissions are deeply involved in circulating counterfeit Indian currency.
Regular intelligence feeds are available with numerous references to the FICN (Fake Indian Currency Notes) trade in Bangladesh and Nepal, where mention of the Pakistan high commission and its officials (by name), facilitating the trade, are common, a senior official, privy to the report said.
Considering a series of intelligence inputs between 2006-2010, Indian officials detected the direct role of 11 officials belonging to ISI and the Pakistan high commission in running an international racket of fake Indian currency through 28 global networks.
The report reveals that the top-most FICN procurers in Pakistan were referred to as Major Sahab or Bade Sahab. Major Sahab is believed to be an army officer currently with the ISI.
There are impeccable inputs to suggest that Indian fake currency is supplied by the embassy and transported by the embassy vehicle in Dhaka. Sources told DNA Pakistans official currency presses are being used to print high quality fake Indian currency notes. Intelligence reports also indicated a majority of the printing work was being done in Peshawar, Quetta and Karachi.
The report states the transfer of such volumes of fake currency by air transport from Pakistan would not be possible without assistance from the official machinery. None of the seizures have ever been on Pakistan soil, but 36% seizures have been made from couriers deplaning from a direct flight from Pakistan.
