Pakistan expels Indian high commission staffer on spying charge

Pakistan on Wednesday expelled Indian high commission staffer Kulwant Singh on charges of spying, a foreign office statement said.

The government has declared Singh 'persona non grata on account of his involvement in activities not compatible with his official status', the statement said.

"Kulwant Singh was intercepted while receiving sensitive documents from a Pakistani contact on Saturday," it claimed.

Singh has been ordered to leave Pakistan within seven days, it said.
