Suddle spills the beans on IB operatives

* Intelligence Bureau chief files document in courts containing details of bureau officials’ postings, operations, secret assignments

Daily Times Monitor

LAHORE: In a major security gaffe, Intelligence Bureau chief Shoaib Suddle revealed the identity of 70 senior Intelligence Bureau (IB) covert operatives on various assignments in the country and abroad, a private TV channel reported.

According to the channel, the secret information was leaked in a 96-page legal petition filed by Suddle with the Supreme Court (SC) challenging a lower court’s decision in a case regarding seniority of IB officials.

The information was first placed before a subordinate court and later before the SC. The otherwise confidential details provided in the document placed before the SC reveal the IB senior officials’ complete bio data, including place of posting, and undercover postings in the United Kingdom, Canada, Afghanistan, Iran and Kazakhstan, the channel reported.

Having become a public document, the information can now be accessed by anyone, threatening the lives and careers of the mentioned officials, the channel said.

The IB chief and his administration overlooked the facts that many of the details provided to the courts would endanger the lives of many of its operatives abroad and across Pakistan, as some of the operatives are working in restive areas of the frontier region, the Tribal Areas and northern areas, the channel said.

Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry would take up the petition on Monday.

Such a an AH!!!

Who made him the IB Chief by the way. He don't even know the basics of intelligence protocols. This would certainly fall hard on the operatives. i hope the SC uses some brains on this.

The stupidity of it all. And couldn't the court hear the case while placing a gagging order on all involved, not to divulge details?

If the senior people in IB are busy litigating upon each other regarding their career advancement, then how much time are they spending infiltrating and spying on the terorrists and criminals?

But when such pressing matters as promotion are on one's mind, who needs to bother about the mundane day to day things of intelligence gathering and atrocity prevention.

Which is why i think these type of agencies should be put under Army command although agents can be civilians.ISI is possibly one of the best intelligence agency but look at FIA, IB they are incompetent.

BTW i just recalled-have we ever heard that someone or something has been caught by the IB? We do hear the FIA, ANF, and the military intelligence agencies achieving somethings but IB was kinda behind the doors, always.

I think IB chief should resign just like the British Cop over such mistakes of intelligence failure he has jeapordized of many people and this is unacceptable.

This howler took place in 2007 so lets hope most of the agents have finished their work.
