The book ‘The Spy Chronicles’: RAW, ISI and the Illusion of Peace, has been co-authored by the former Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) Chief A.S. Dulat and former ISI Chief Lt General Asad Durrani.
The book is said to be mainly a series of discussions conducted between the two former adversaries on a range of topics by journalist Aditya Sinha.
I will be going to GHQ on 28th May ’18 to present my case to the Army regarding my new book ‘Spy Chronicles’. I have not violated any code of conduct and I am sure Army will agree with me.

I am saddened by the allegations made on me by my own people. I have served Pakistan all along putting my life at risk. People who live life for others selflessly never get respect they deserve & instead those who do all wrongs for their own benefits are treated like King.

For the people who are accusing me of making money through my new book – the profit earned is not for my luxury but will be used for the poor people who are victim of terrorism through various NGOs with whom I have association since many years.

I got a call from the former United States Director of Central Intelligence Mr. William Webster who is also my good old friend. As intelligence chief I have worked closely with him. He appreciated my newly released book and called it a ‘masterpiece’. I am humbled by his gesture.
