The National Directorate of Security (NDS)—Afghanistan’s intelligence agency has arrested five agents of Pakistan’s spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) in northeastern Afghanistan.
Security officials in Badakhshan province say the arrested ISI agents include two men and three women who had covered themselves as health workers in Baharak and Kisham districts.
Officials add that police also took part in the operation to arrest the agents.
Public Health Directorate of Badakhshan province says the arrested suspects do not have any documents to indicate that they are doctors or have received medical training.
Earlier, residents of Wardooj District of Badakhshan province complained that a number of Pakistani generals have entered into their district and met Taliban commanders.
Badakhshan was comparatively a peaceful province of Afghanistan but it has been witnessing its worst security since last year.http://www.khaama.com/isi-agents-arrested-in-badakhshan-4557
