Pakistan has appointed Lieutenant-General Muhammad Asim Malik as the new director general of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), the country's powerful spy agency. The appointment comes at a time when the agency's political role is under scrutiny, particularly after the arrest of a former ISI chief for supporting the political cause of jailed ex-Prime Minister Imran Khan. Malik's leadership will be crucial as Pakistan navigates both internal political tensions and external security threats.
