Brigadier Ali Khan who was found linked
to CIA-MI6 backed Hizbul Tahrir
A brigadier of Pakistan Army appointed at General Headquarters was arrested on the charges of having links with Hizb-ul-Tahreer, a banned CIA-MI6 backed fake religious militant outfit. Brigadier Ali Khan, who was appointed at the Regulation Directorate in GHQ back in May 2009, came under the surveillance radar of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and Military Intelligence (MI) earlier this year, according to sources. Reportedly, after almost six months of surveillance, the ISI and MI in a joint operation, picked up the brigadier from outside his residence on May 6. The intelligence authorities reportedly ran a check on him after some ‘suspicious’ people were found frequently visiting his home. The call records of Khan’s cell phone confirmed the suspicions of intelligence agencies. Sources said Brigadier Ali Khan was linked to the section of militants that had direct ties with the Central Investigation Agency (CIA) and the military intelligence agencies arrested him to probe this connection. The ISPR only confirmed Ali Khan’s arrest but refused to provide further details.

Confirming the arrest, ISPR Director General Major General Athar Abbass said the news was not made public earlier due to pending investigations against the brigadier. Abbas said the brigadier was linked to Hizbul Tahrir, a militant organisation banned by Pakistan in 2003. He said the investigations were at early stages and it was premature to comment any further. He denied any racket of senior military officers having links with militants. Earlier, talking to a private television channel, Abbas had said Hizbul Tahrir was linked to England, which, according to sources, was a hint at the possible nexus between militants, CIA and officers like Ali Khan.

The ISPR DG said no other arrests were made. The brigadier was reportedly going to retire from his duties at Pakistan Army next month. It is also being probed how a brigadier having linkages with militants got appointed Regulation Directorate, an important military branch that primarily deals with recruitments and human resource issues. Hizbul Tahrir is the same hypocrite "muslim" organisation that sends hand-outs and parcels to almost all the journalists of mainstream national media instigating the journalist community to declare their version of rubbish ‘Jihad’ which is described as Facade in Qur'an, against the foreign powers, Pakistani government and Pakistan Army when in actuality they themselves are playing in the hands of CIA and MI6. Talk about deception.

Agencies add: “We follow zero tolerance policy of such activities within the military. Therefore prompt action was taken on detection”, Abbas said. A military official, who declined to be identified, ruled out the possibility of the brigadier’s involvement in any plot. “He just had contacts with the banned group. But he was not involved in any type of conspiracy”, Khan is from a family of soldiers - his father was a junior officer while he has two sons and one son-in law in the Army. His wife Anjum rejected the allegations against him as ‘rubbish’. “Every general knows Brigadier Ali Khan. Even (army chief) General (Ashfaq) Kayani knows him,” she said. “We can never think of betraying the Army or our country. “He was an intellectual, an honest, patriotic and ideological person. It’s a fashion here that whosoever offers prayers and practises religion is dubbed as Taliban and militant,” she said. However she overlooked the fact that more than half of Pakistan Army soldiers keep beards and almost all Army men offer prayer 5 times a day with a handful of exceptions and none is dubbed as "Taliban" or "militant".

A military source told BBC that Gen Kayani had asked for a briefing about the brigadier and after being satisfied about the weight of the ‘evidence’, ordered the arrest himself. This is not the first time allegations have been made about links between elements in Pakistan’s military and banned organisations, including militant groups. At least two army officers were court-martialled last year for links with the banned Hizbul Tahrir. There are evidences available that fake religious extremist groups like Hizb-ul-Tahrir are trying to make inroads into the Army to achieve their filthy goals in the name of "Islam and Jihad". “What we see is that it is trying to infiltrate the military and wanting to bring some sort of a change through the military and that could be dangerous,” retired general and defence analyst Talat Masood said. The allegations against the brigadier could show gaps as far as discipline was concerned, he said, but added that it was a positive sign that the Army had found out and taken action. “I think the Army is trying do a clean-up”, he said. “They have realised that otherwise the institution will be undermined.”
