New Delhi, Mar 4: An official of the Union home ministry has been questioned by the police and other agencies in connection with an espionage case in Rajasthan.




The official, who works with the foreigners division of the home ministry, has been questioned for his alleged links with a suspected ISI agent arrested in Pokhran last month, sources said.
