Pakistan Arrests 10 Spying for RAW India

Islamabad – Pakistani authorities have arrested 10 individuals accused of working for India’s intelligence agency, RAW (Research and Analysis Wing), in major operations conducted across Punjab and Sindh, officials said Wednesday.

The Punjab Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) arrested six Pakistani nationals in Operation Yalghar, carried out in Bahawalpur and Bahawalnagar, for allegedly planning attacks on mosques and railway stations.

Punjab Additional Inspector General Shahzada Sultan confirmed that one RAW facilitator was arrested in Bahawalpur and two suspected Indian spies were caught in Bahawalnagar. He called it a “major success” in disrupting foreign-backed terror networks.

Audio evidence linked the suspects to two Indian officers, Major Ravindra and Inspector Singh, who allegedly supplied explosive devices near the Pakistan-India border. Officials say the attacks were to be funded via cryptocurrency and branchless banking, revealing a sophisticated financial network.

Authorities also linked recent terror attacks in Mianwali and Dera Ghazi Khan to funds from Afghanistan, with RAW allegedly supporting TTP militants in those areas. However, no direct link was found between this network and a separate RAW cell busted in Karachi.

In Karachi, four more suspects were arrested by the Special Investigation Unit (SIU). SSP Shoaib Memon said the men were allegedly in contact with Indian Army Colonel Ranjit, and had been sharing sensitive military photos and locations across the border.

Explosives, a vehicle, and weapons were recovered from the Karachi suspects, who were from Sujawal district and had reportedly crossed into India over 20 times. Authorities have registered cases under espionage and anti-state laws, and further investigations are underway.

Officials stated that all 10 suspects are Pakistani nationals, and Pakistan plans to raise India’s alleged involvement in terrorism at international forums.
