Pakistan Spy Racket: 'Met My Contacts at Mandi House Metro Station'

Pakistan High Commission staffer Mehmood Akhtar - accused of espionage - in a confessional video refutes Pakistan's claims that he was man-handled by the Indian officials.

He also revealed his 'contacts' who used to work for him to pass on information about key installations in India.

On October 26, Mehmood was arrested by the Delhi Police on charges of espionage. However, he was let off after interrogation within hours owing to his diplomatic immunity and has been told to return to Pakistan immediately.

He was under watch for almost six months and was held with classified documents and maps related to Indian Army's defence positions.
