The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Friday arrested its former Superintendent of Police (SP) Arvind Digvijay Negi on the charge of leaking secret documents of the agency to an accused in a case against overground workers of the terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).
In November last year, the NIA had arrested Kashmir-based human rights activist Khurram Parvez in the same case.
Mr. Negi, who had probed several terrorism-related cases, was currently posted in Himachal Pradesh's Shimla after being repatriated from the NIA. The agency did not reveal the identity of the person with whom he allegedly shared the secret documents.
