ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Chauhdry Nisar on Thursday claimed that more than 1,000 intelligence operators came to Islamabad under the guise of International Non-Governmental Organisations (INGOs) during the previous government’s rule.
At National Assembly session, the Interior Minister, while responding to a call attention notice by JUI-F Senator Hamdullah and PPP’s Saeed Ghani, said that around 1,000 intelligence operators visited the country and got visas in the name of international aid groups in the previous government’s rule. “All these operators were working with hostile intelligence agencies,” he added.
While criticizing the previous government, the interior minister said that the people who raised the slogan of ‘Pakistan first’ never dared taking actions against these INGOs.
He asserted that several INGOs were involved in anti-state activities which were not halted by the previous governments. Nisar said that his ministry on request of the Economic Affairs Division sealed the office of Save the Children.
