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.
