Ringing in the changes: New spymaster named
Lieutenant General Rizwan Akhtar has been named the country’s top spymaster in a major reshuffle in the Pakistan Army that also saw appointment of four new corps commanders.
Rizwan Akhtar, who was elevated to the rank of Lt General along with five other major generals, was approved for the key post of director general, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on the recommendation of army chief General Raheel Sharif, said an official of the Prime Minister’s Office.
However, the formal announcement was made by the military’s media wing, the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR).
Technically, it is the prime minister’s prerogative to appoint the spy chief but such a crucial appointment is always made with the consent of the army chief.
Lt-General Rizwan Akhtar will step into the shoes of the incumbent DG ISI, Lt General Zaheerul Islam, on November 8 – a day after his predecessor retires.
