Laws does not work on analogies. Law of the land is that if you work for foreign secret service, you are a traitor. Period. Law never differentiate b/w working for Foreign secret service for good cause or bad cause.

and this is not law of Pakistan, this is pretty much law in every country. US its self has convicted Israeli spy, Jonathan Pollard, (Israel btw is closest friend of USA). He got life in prison for working for Israeli spy agency.

If we allow people (or let them off the hook) because they breached the law for “good cause” we will have 1000s of Robin hoods roaming on street of Lahore and Karachi.

Are you trying to equate spies equal, who spy against the interest of their own country and those who are spying on interest that is nothing to do with interest of their own country?

For instance, Afridi was spying on foreign national (OBL) and his spying was nothing to do with harming interest of Pakistan (actually, his spying was in accordance with Pakistani official interest) … and Israeli spy was spying in USA against the interest of USA.

Anyhow, if you mean that a person spying for another country is traitor regardless of that person is spying against the interest of his country or on objectives that is nothing to do with harming his country, then all British citizens who spied for Pakistan during Nawaz period (1997-99) to find properties and financial interest of Zardari in UK must be traitor, and UK should punish them as traitor, right?

And all British, Canadian and American citizens of Pakistani origin who spied to locate Pakistanis during Musharraf period who fled to USA, Canada and UK after doing financial corruption in Pakistan (during pre 1999 period of Nawaz and BB), and reported their whereabouts to Pakistan Musharraf government (NAB), must be traitor too and those respective countries should prosecute them as traitor, right?

Remember, Admiral Mansurul Haq fled to USA and after finding his whereabouts (through Pakistanis and American spy company ‘Broadsheet’ in USA) Pakistan Musharraf government NAB extradited him to Pakistan from USA and made him pay $7.5 million to Pakistan in plea bargaining. So, those American and American Pakistanis who helped Pakistan locate Admiral mansurul Haq (and many other) are traitors in your view?

And similarly, in your view those British Pakistanis who located Zardari Rockwood palace and have also located Nawaz several flats and other properties of Zardari, Nawaz are all traitors?

During Musharraf period, Pakistan ‘NAB’ employed American spy company ‘Broadsheet’ and handed them names of around 250 wanted corrupt bureaucrats and politicians to locate them. Pakistan also hired British firms for the purpose.

So, according to you, all those who spied for Pakistan to locate Pakistani wanted corrupts were traitors, Right?
