Babur tried to disrupt
war game
.
.
The Pakistani warship that triggered a diplomatic
squabble between India and Pakistan ahead of the
foreign secretary level talks is a 'history-sheeter'
that came dangerously close to Indian warships
in the Arabian Sea thrice in the past eight months
and even tried to disrupt war games being
conducted by the Indian Navy in international
waters.
Details have now emerged that show that the
PNS Babur has a history of aggressive behaviour
at sea and last Thursday's incident when it
brushed past the INS Godavari while escorting
the MV Suez is the third time that it has
deliberately taunted Indian warships. It is also
speculated that all three incidents are related to the
Captainof the Pakistani warship, Azhar Naeem,
who spent three years in the ISI before taking
charge of the ship recently.
Source said that the first incident was recorded in
November last year when Indian warships were
taking part in the Defence of Gujarat Exercise. The
Babur came dangerously close and attempted to
disrupt the war game.

The action was repeated in January when it
attempted to interfere in war games in the
Arabian Sea.
In both cases, the Babur breached the three mile
distance that is followed by warships of both
countries as part of CBMs. Sources said the Indian
Navy lodged a complaint in both cases.
