Kul Bhoshan Yadav is a serving senior Indian naval officer whose primary mission was to foment terrorism in Balochistan as well as Karachi, DG ISPR has said.
“He converted to Islam and worked at Gadani under the cover of a scrap dealer,” said Asim Bajwa in a joint presser with Information Minister Pervez Rashid on Tuesday.
“So it established he was working for the Indian spy agency and there is an active RAW network in Pakistan, especially in Balochistan.”
The press conference was kicked off with a confessional 6-minute video of the Indian spy.

Last week, Balochistan Home Minister Sarfaraz Bugti had revealed the arrest of the RAW officer.
“Kul Yadav Bhoshan, a commander-ranked officer in Indian Navy was working for RAW and was in contact with Baloch separatists and terrorists fuelling sectarian violence in Pakistan and Balochistan,” Bugti told the media.
The minister, however, did not disclose the exact location of where the man was arrested.
The CM had also announced further information on Bhoshan’s mission would be given to the media in the next few days.
Islamabad and the Balochistan government have long accused RAW and Afghan intelligence of funding and training Baloch insurgents, who have been targeting security forces and pro-government personalities in the province for the past 10 years.
Security forces have stepped up operations in the violence-wracked Balochistan province since the announcement of the National Action Plan against terrorism in December 2014. The province has been in the throes of a low-key insurgency since 2004, which became deadlier after the killing of Baloch chieftain Nawab Akbar Bugti in 2006.
Islamabad sees India’s growing diplomatic initiatives in Afghanistan in the same period as a cover for RAW agents working to destabilise Pakistan by training and arming separatists in Balochistan.
