Muhammad Ahmad Sheikh Muhammad Rafiq, a citizen of Pakistan approached a help desk at the airport and told an official at the counter that he wanted to share information about Pakistan’s intelligence agency, Inter-Service Intelligence- ISI. The eyes of the officials opened wide after hearing this and they immediately informed the security officials. They then detained the Pakistani national and informed intelligence about it.
38-year-old Rafiq had arrived in Delhi by Air India’s flight from Dubai and was further booked for Kathmandu. However, he did not take the next flight and decided to break journey and walked up to the help-desk counter at the airport.
