ISLAMABAD: An Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) spokesman on Wednesday denied the contents of a news report that David Headley, a suspect in the Mumbai attacks, had named three officers of the Pakistan Army and the Inter-Services Intelligence for their direct involvement in the attacks in Mumbai. According to an ISPR press release, the spokesman said the allegations were false and fabricated, adding that that they were aimed at maligning the Pakistan Army and the ISI. “There is absolutely no link or connection between the army, ISI and David Headley,” the spokesman said, adding that the report appeared to be part of an overall design with a malicious intent to bring disrepute to Pakistan’s national security organisations. staff report
