Pakistan spy was getting Rs 5K per photo, video
Noman Ilahi, who was arrested by the police for allegedly spying for terror organisations, was in direct contact with Iqbal Kana, an ISI handler in Pakistan.
The police are also investigating his links at Kairana, Uttar Pradesh, and also got details of some persons who were reportedly in touch with him.
As per sources, Ilahi had been working as a passport agent at Kairana for a long time, and processed applications of people wishing to visit Islamic countries, including Pakistan. THis is where he came in contact with Kana.
The sources said Kana also hailed from Kairana, but had left the country around 30 years ago to settle in Pakistan.
They said the Delhi police had seized 75 pistols, reportedly sent from Pakistan to Delhi, and Kana's name also came up in the smuggling of weapons. He has been running anti-India activities from Pakistan.
He used to come in contact with people living at Kairana and searched for youths to work with him.
The sources claimed that Ilahi was getting good money from Pakistani handlers and he was also in contact with some other people in Pakistan. He used to send them sensitive information, especially the movement of the Army in trains.
He came to Panipat four-five months ago to live with his sister in Hali Colony and joined a job of security guard at a blanket factory. But, he often used to skip work and go to railway stations to make videos of Army trains or their movement.
Police sources said he was getting Rs 4,000 to Rs 5,000 per photo and video, and he used to send them regularly to Pakistan.
The police also raided a public service centre at Kairana and identified some people who were reportedly in contact with Ilahi.
Investigation agencies are also scrutinising the passport applications processed by Ilhai.
