Indian security agencies handling immigration are on red alert after the daring incident involving the agency which deals with distribution of Indian visas on behalf of Indian Missions in Afghanistan, reported Hindustan Times.
The incident happened on August 15, the day Taliban entered Kabul to complete their takeover of Afghanistan, but came to light on Wednesday.
