US diplomat in Pakistan charged with spying

Pakistani authorities have decided to indict US diplomat Raymond Davis on espionage charge, saying he had been conducting surveillance of the Pakistan Army’s bunkers on the Eastern border with India.

The prosecution branch of the Punjab police has written to the investigation branch that a case of espionage should also be registered against Davis.

Pictures of some sensitive Pakistani areas and defence installations have been retrieved from Davis’ camera.

“Photos of the strategic Balahisar Fort, the headquarters of the paramilitary Frontier Corps in Peshawar and of Pakistan Army’s bunkers on the Eastern border with India were found in the camera,” a source added.
