Pro-Khalistan leader and former secretary of the Pakistan Sikh Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (PSGPC) Gopal Singh Chawla, who is also a close aide of Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) ‘chief’ Hafiz Saeed, is not only a Khalistani leader but also an informer and recruiter for Pakistan's spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), reports India Today on August 29. Pakistan spy Harpal Singh Pala, a former IAF official's son who was arrested in Jalandhar on August 25, revealed during interrogation that it was Gopal Singh Chawla who radicalised him and recruited him as an agent of the ISI's espionage network. Police officials said Harpal Singh Pala is the son of former IAF airman Bahadur Singh who hailed from Jalandhar. After his father died, the Pala's mother was employed as a cook by the IAF, who later retired and died. The family lived inside the Air Force Station. The accused spy was running a dairy at the nearby Bhatija village. Pala was impressed with Gopal Singh Chawla and had sent him a Facebook friend request. The two soon started chatting on Facebook and Chawla also share his mobile number. They started chatting on WhatsApp. Harpal Singh Pala told Police that when he told Chawla that his father was an airman, he asked him to get secret information from the Air Force station and was also promised adequate compensation. Interestingly, one day when internet services were down, Harpal Singh Pala made a mistake of calling Chawla on his mobile phone. As intelligence agencies had already put the mobile phones being used to call people in Pakistan under surveillance, Harpal Singh Pala's call was also traced and his activities came on the radar of security agencies.
