RAWALPINDI: Former chief of Inter Services Intelligence Lt Gen (retd) Asad Durrani has been found guilty of violating Army’s Code of Conduct, Director General Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor Friday said.

He was addressing a press conference on the situation in the aftermath of Pulwama incident.

The DG ISPR said a Court of Inquiry found him guilty of violating the military code of conduct thus his pension and other benefits being paid to him have been stopped. However, he would continue to retain the rank as a retired general, he added.

Gen Asad had co-authored a book “The Spy Chronicles” in collaboration with former Chief of Indian spy agency Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) A.S. Dulat.

Meanwhile, referring to various media reports on the arrest of two officers of Pakistan Army, he said yes these reports were correct as two officials were facing Field General Court Martial (FGMC) on espionage charges.

However, he said that these officers had been arrested separately affirming that they were not part of any network whatsoever. He said the media would be apprised of the decision of FGMC after it completed its formal procedures.
