Islamabad : Pakistani authorities have claimed to have arrested an Indian spy who was allegedly involved in Wednesday’s blast in Lahore that killed a woman and injured four others.
An official of the interior ministry said that the Indian national who had worked in the Indian High Commission in Britain for about three years was arrested on information provided by an agent of a secret agency.
According to the official, the Indian national has been identified as Sutish Anand Sharma who was living in Lahore’s interior city for the last one year with the name of Munir Ahmad.
He is alleged to have planted the bomb. The official said: “During initial investigation he has admitted the crime which he carried out on the behest of an Indian intelligence agency.”
