LAHORE: The police and a sensitive agency in a joint operation nabbed on Tuesday an alleged Indian spy from a house in Kahna and shifted him to an undisclosed place for questioning.
A police official said the man who introduced himself as Afzal was taken into custody on a tip-off regarding his alleged links with an Indian spy agency.
Quoting initial inquiries, he said Afzal, a resident of New Delhi, had arrived in Karachi illegally and later shifted to Lahore.
He is being questioned by the law enforcement agencies, the police official said, adding that action would be taken against him on the basis of evidence.

Hand over him to India

He is an Indian citizen, If he is just involved in spying and not in terrorism then hand over him to India.

Indian spies need to be given extra "VIP" treatment , if you know what I mean :-)

@Sandhu
"Intelligence" with a capital "I' normally means the intelligence services of a country. "Intelligentsia" refers to a group of intellectual/thinkers. There is usually a huge gap between the levels of intelligence of the two groups. The level of argument provided by Sandhu suggests that he falls into the first category

Its funny that when India catches a Pakistani spy, a vice versa news appears on the other side. Looks like both know who the spies are and catch them whenever they feel like.

@Sandhu Same good work done by Indian agencies in Indian Punjab yesterday. Hence we can take it as a reciprocal action.
